I'm probably a little late on helping you Kurt since the season is just around the corner but I use peep sights on both of my guns. I have a remington and an Omega. Both have a fiber optic sight on the front and a Williams peep on the rear. I would get the smallest diameter front sight you can find and fit that with the peep and you will be set. The smaller the front sight the more precise your aim point.
As for what load to use I have found that each gun is unique. I have a few friends that all shoot muzzleloaders and we all shoot different bullets and powder charges. My remington likes 100 gr 777 and a 300+ grain bullet (preferably a conical) and my Omega likes 90 gr APP and a 250 gr shockwave.
If you just going after a deer you really don't need the 460 grain bullet. Go lighter and pick up some trajectory. Although with the 460 you could probably send one end to end on a deer and it would still exit.
Good luck and post some pictures if you get one.
