My Disc loves either the 300gr Barnes MZ over 100grs of Pyrodex R-S or Goex FFF...

Or a 250 Shockwave in front of 90grs of the same 2 powders...

Don't limit yourself to one powder and expect it to group, you are hand loading...

dead on: My .50 Elite shot a bunch of bullets very well with T7. I haven'tbeen able to duplicate that accuracy with BH209.. yet.

If you haven't already tried... here's my best loads between 85 to 100grs of T7, W209 primers... wet/dry patch between shots. Temps have to be below 70* or wait 10-15 mins between shots:

Barnes 250 Expanders with supplied sabot
Hornady 300 (.452) XTP's with Harvester short black sabot
220 Dead Centers (.400) with the blue MMP sabot
200 Shock Wave (.400) with blue MMP sabot

Good Luck !

That 220grn Deadcenter is an awesome bullet on game. On Deer size game a much better choice then Barnes.
