I forgot to mention that the bullets I'm using primarily are the Barnes spitfire 245 grain. I know there a little on the expensive side but for hunting there great. My gun also shoots the Hornady SST's very well but with T7 they are near impossible to load. With the barnes spitfire they seem to go down with a nice constant pressure, tight but not overly tight. The main benefit I get from them is accuracy in conjunction with the ease of loading. When I was using the Jim's Shockey's gold I tried the SST's and they loaded alot easier. If any of the omega and encore shooters are interested, chuckhawks.com website has some interesting info. about this bullet with respects to T/C and their usually tighter bore. I found it interesting reading. Just my observations
