with sabots.. and the substitute powders, as long as I did not get out the 375 grain & 405 grain sabots I like to shoot, the accuracy was excellent. Out of my Wolverine, it would have bordered exceptional because of the scope. With concials though, it was terrible. I was lucky to hold a four and five inch group at 50 yards with conicals and that is not acceptable even with open sights..
What do you suppose the difference the PB's are making for txhunter58? He is getting 2" groups with them at 50 and similar MOA at 25 yards. Generally, on would expect the MOA to widen considerbly as range increases when a load just doesn't "fit". The Powerbelts themselves, even in 405 grain weights, seem to be grouping pretty well with them. I'm no sharp shooter but txhunter is obtaining groups better than Iam capableof obtaining with the same sighting system. I would consider him a better marksman than myself, no doubt.
I am puzzled by theimproved accuracy of the PB's over the other conicals he has tried. Puzzled, in that, I am clueless as to
why they perform so much better. Any ideas as to what is at the root of it?
