loads???

[rem 700]

Loose and pellets are equivalent. The only advantage would be using a finer granule of loose powder(which would increase pressure so I don't recommend unless in a 'light' load). I don't recommend you use other than a 2fg powder unless your charge is 100 grains or lower. As the owner of a z5, it's very easy to clean, very easy to operate, and super simple in every way. Great choice. I recommend American Pioneer brand powder for easy cleanup. A universally accurate in-line muzzleloader load I always like to start with is 120 grains of 2fg powder, along with either a 250 or 300 grain t/c shockwave or Hornady SST(make sure sabots are legal in your state).
