I have an X7. Basically any of the Speer Gold Dot/Deep Curls - I have used the .45 cal 300 and 250 grains and the .44 cal 240 grain bullets - with 90-110 gr of BH209, whatever gives you the best groups.. I use mainly Harvester Crush rib sabots, either .44 or .45 (green or black) and CCI 209m primers (I may switch to the Remington STS primers - a little cleaner).

Also have had good luck with the Hornady FPB 350 grain conicals and 90gr of BH 209.

I love my X7. Easy to carry in the woods and simply fun to shoot. Enjoy yours.
