Was wondering what kind of accuracy to expect from the classic at 50 yds iron sights.What round would be better a 452 or a 454 head?I'm getting a lot of blow back from my load of 8.5 unique with a 255 lead round flat point.and not happy with the accuracy.

The biggest cast bullet you can hand fit in an unsized once fired case is the best best for cast bullets, .454" would be where I'd start as long as you can chamber the round. I got 1½"-2" 100yd groups with a low power scope on mine with 250gr jacketed bullets at a little over 1900fps, no cast bullets tho.
