I was thinking about setting up a group of Powerbelt Hunters to use certain Powerbelts/loads for this years hunting season. I thought it would be fun for the hunters to find the Powerbelt they want to shoot, pick out a load, sight in, and then hunt with it this year and take pictures "If possible" and take a detailed report/story of the hunt,How the bullet performed, Internal damage, Distance deer travels after being hit, The way the animal acted after being hit. Just a really darn good write up on how that certain bullet/load you used, Performed in the field.
Also, would be nice to see atleast Two hunters using the same bullet/load and one taking a shoulder shot and the other taking a lung shot. This would then give the other guys out there, some really good knowledge on how that bullet will perform if they have to take a shoulder/lung shot.
If We can get enough Hunters on the forum willing to sign up for this, I'll start a new Category strictly for this Topic. I honestly think everyone would be having a good time with this.
For those who would like to join in and see this happen, Please sign up here with Two hands in the air!
count me in. i signed up but don't know what you want from there.

Camo, you can go under Powerbelt Talk and find the Powerbelt Hunters Wanted sticky. If you already have a load combo you want to use, make that public so we can see if atleast 1 more member would like to join in using that same load. http://ganderspowerbeltforu.powergui...llets-chat-f1/
Lord willing, I'm good for 2 Powerbelt deer this season
My set-up will be 45cal Disc Elite with 60g of powder, pushing 300g Platinum PowerBelt. This gives me right about 1350fps...just perfect for 20-120 yards
I shoot them out of my flintlock. Should I shoot a deer with one, I would surely document it for you guys. I can't promise I'll shoot something this yearthough.
