No trouble at all and good luck.

This should get you on the paper good enough for hunting purposes.

There are a plethora of projectile and powder choices available and there are actually others that I personally prefer, but require more load development, equipment and working with loose powder. Which is not a big deal at all as loose powder is where it's at as far as load development with a much wider variety of projectiles.

But this should get you in the field quickly with a highly effective hunting load. I've taken dozens of deer with the 240 XTP and about 80-90 grains of loose powder. The two 777 pellets are about the equivelant to 85 grains of FFG loose 777.

Let us know how you make out.
