Default RE: Traditions Pursuit XLT - any input/thoughts?

I witnessed a disgruntled customer @ Gander Mountain that was very unhappy with the Pursuit. Other than that I haven't heard too much else about the Pursuit. For your money though, you cannot beat any of the Pedersoli's. I have a Cabela's Rolling block that is fantastic and is actually $50.00 less than the Pursuit. It is simple and strong and accurate. I use 230gr. XTP .451 bullet with 50cal. High Pressure Knight Sabots and 100grains of 777 pellets(2x50's). I get about an inch group @ 100 yards and sub 2 inch @ 150 yards. Sighted in @ 3" high @ 100 yards and due to my configuration with the 3x9x40 Mildot WC Tasco it is still 3 inches high @ 150 yards shooting off the bench. Haven't tried at 200 yards yet. What ever you decide, always make sure you seat the bullet all the way down on the powder each time. Use the ramrod as your gauge. HAPPY HUNTING...!!!
