I have been a traditional shooter and used 385 Hornady Lyman lead bullets with 75 grains Pyrodex RS (93.75 gr.equivalent BP.) I got some powerbelt 245's and 295's HP and have just started trying them out. 295's good enough for deer to 75 yds, but not too impressed with accuracy. Also note in other postings the somewhat varied performance on deer with the powerbelts, but they sure a joy to load. Have been trying the 75 gr. Pyrodex on them so far.
Will the 1-28" twist shoot the 385 lead bullets? Will I need to adjust the load down due to the faster twist (my TC Renegade has 1-48"
?
Any suggestions on loadings for the powerbelts and 385 lead bullets.
While the Hunterbolt is OK for up to 150 grains didn't figure to go over 100 gr. unless needed. (I note that they show for the 295's for Pyrodex RS 80-90 grs and for the pellets 80-100 gr. Any reason for that?)
