I would have bought a rifle with a longer barrel and better sights, instead of the 24" hunter that I have now. Also, I would have started with Pyrodex instead of regular BP. I get about 4 consecutive shots without scrubbing using Goex, and around 30 with Pyrodex. This slowed down my shooting when I started. Also, I would have started casting earlier.
