TC Omega: Setup Questions
I'm just getting into muzzleloading this year as my non-hunting uncle won a TC Omega and I've been given first dibs on it! I'm satisfied I've got an awesome gun, or at least that's what I assume for the most part from what I've read, but now I'm looking at the powder and ammo I should use for my setup. I'm not an accuracy freak, but I do want to hit a deer at maybe150+ yards if the shot were to present itself, likely closer though. I've been told 100 grains of Triple 777 pellets are the way to go for charge. However, while looking for a quick and easy-to-use bullet I came across these "Speed Sabots." What areyour experiences with them and while they don't have to be the most accurate blackpowder projectile out there, are they at least in the ballpark for whitetail hunting? Are they really as easy to use as they seem? Also, will those Remington Kleanbore #209 Primers work alright or should I be looking at something else? Remember, I'm searching for reliability and ease-of-use while still being able to efficiently kill a deer, not necessarily the most accurate or hardest-hitting setup as long as it will get the job done. I'm completely new to blackpower hunting, but with a little help and encouragement I'm becoming very excited not only for bow season now, but for firearm season as well in Illinois this fall. Thanks a lot whoever lends a helping hand!
