1- 28 grs is a good field load. It is also accurate.
2 - A tight ball may not be more accurate per se. But one thing is for sure. A tight ball will not creep forward under recoil. That does happen and it can lead to enough delay in the ignition to ruin accuracy completely(that delay can be so slight you will barely notice it, but it will ruin your scores).
3 - keeping the soot soft with a good grease over the chambers not only allows for more shots fired before fouling gums things up, but also is a great plus in maitaining accuracy.
4 - greased wads I do not use. First they don't help accuracy much(at least not in my experience YMMV). And secondly. I compete with handguns at 25 meters. When I tried greased wads in training, I found out they could reach the target with enough force to get you in trouble when scoring your target.
Edit. Almost forgot. I use corn meal as a filler. It also helps keeping the barrel clean.
