like to talk black powder cartridre loading

I have a 45-110 sharps. I am working the loads and am looking for a good load to shoot competitively. My loads run about 1650 fps, all that i have read about competition is that they load to about 1450Fps. They say this allows them to shoot all day without too much pain.

The amount of powder I use is less than some of the loads I've read about. It i s black powder and I have a 34 inch barrel and think the powder burns longer down the barrel.

Any one have any suggestions or recipes. I do use corn meal as a filler to fill the case.

Thanks for any help. I used the search button and found nothing on this subject.
If found inappropriate, go ahead and close it. Blitz
