56-50 Armi Sport Spencer Loads, Revised

After a lot of rounds down the barrel I've got what I think is a good load for 100 yards for the 56-50 Armi Sport Spencer.  I flipped the ladder sight up and sighted through the lowest notch.  See picture below:



Powder Trail Boss, 8.8 grains by weight
Bullet 350 grain RCBS-82309
Brass Starline 56-50 Brass
Primer Federal Large Rifle Primers
OAL 1.585"
Crimp Heavy

I went to the range Saturday and here's the result.  Ten round group, 100 yards & the target face is 8 inches in diameter:



This is also a good load for 200 yards with the ladder flipped up and the slider down all the way to the bottom of the ladder.
