RE: T/C Scout Conical loads
Those Scout and Grey Wolfs do not have the newer shallow grooves being put out today in fast twist rifles. I could never get 100 yard groups using the Great Plains 385s in my Omega at 100 yards. I could getgroups likeat around 70 yards tops -- then they began to spread.
I always preferred to shoot conicals in my Omega, but finding a sub-400 gr. bullet for it that prints nice targetsat 125-150 yards has cost me a pile of money - testing 11 different conicals along the way. My best groups were with the270 gr. Ballet HPs. But if I'm going to use a sub-300 gr. bullet, I'll stick to a sabot that I can use out to 175 yards.
