I have a 58 caliber musket that I would like to take a deer with and or hog should one just happen bye. I shoot a .570 round ball with a .010 patch. At the range shooting about 75 yards it does well with 75 grains. However that is of course poking holes in paper. What load should I try for the humane kill and keep my shoulder where it is?
