Default RE: Black Mag3 vs. APP

Here is something else to chew on. My brother and I both have T/C Omegas 50 cal. When I first tried 777 and powerbelts, I started with 100 and 110 grains and 348 powerbelts. I was getting 5 inch groups at 25 yards with that combination! However, I dropped to 90 grains of 777 and the bullets were again almosttouching. Now, my brother shoots 110 grains 777 with the same 348 powerbelts in his gun, and he gets great accruacy/groups (basically touching at 25 yards). Identical guns with much different tastes in powder.

Also, you have to remember, the good groups I was talking about were off a bench rest with sandbags front and rear. I doubt that I am any better of a shot.
