100 to 120 grains of 777 ffg and a knight Red hot in 250 grain size... I'm shooting the new EZ load sabots and they are nice to load. Good luck!!

I start them out at 80 grains with a 300 gr XTP and shoot at 25 yards. Then work on the powder charges moving up until the group falls apart.

Other projectiles are the Barnes 300 grain Expander, Knight Red Hots, Shockwaves, and Saber tooth 300 grain conicals. All of them shoot well out of my Knight Disc rifle.

If you swab between shots, my Knight Disc will really shoot some impressive groups.
