The Rifle you haven’t shot in a long, long time…but should!

I have a .54 cal Gemmer Hawkin with a 1:60 twist. I'm shooting round balls out of it and cannot get it to even hit paper at 100 yards. At 50 yards I'm touching holes. I missed three elk at 100 yards on the last day of the season so I'm hoping you guys can help me figure out how to get this thing to shoot accurately. I found 90 grains of powder of 777 has been the best for 50 yards but want someone else's thoughts!
Alright so it was a kit? Put a laser beam in your muzzle and 25yd check on sights. Otherwise, try .535 patches and generous bore butter.
