Hi everyone! I've had my navy arms 12ga percussion double for years. It's my favorite small game gun. What are some of your favorite loads. I usually shoot 85gr 2f over 1 1/8 oz number 6 shot. later happy

Hi everyone! The shot cups i have came from the old mountain state muzzleloading, the only thing i could find similar is sold at cains outdoor made by T/C #7001 cains #19638 on there online catalog, the ones i have are fiber in stead of metal, with slits, i used to add an x made out of thin cardboard to divide the shot in 4 compartments, with heavier shot it patterned better. I'll try and find the original box my shot cups came in. I might be mistaken on them being from ox-yoke, all my patches and wads are ox-yoke, they might have been made by mountain state muzzloading. later happy
