Default RE: T/C Omega

1. I suppose the blued version would shoot just as well as others???
A. Yes. Same barrel and sights(no longer do they have different sights as many say). Along with that it has a stainless steel breech block that, other than itself, can only be had with the thumbhole stainless steel version(as far as I know).

2. How do you like your Omegas?

A. I am very pleased with my z5. Dependable in wet conditions, the ability to use mag charges for flat trajectories, and about the easiest cleaning I've ever encountered with a muzzleloader.

3. What accuracy do you get with them?

A.Although I've had a miracle 3/4" group with mine before, I generally group anrespectable 1.5" off of a bench. Upgrading to a scope recently for firearm season(no scopesin MZLseason Nebraska)tightened my average, though.

4. What powder/bullet combos do you use with it?

A. For deer, my powder measurements range from 90g to 120g usually. Sometimes hotter when I sacrifice some accuracy for aflatter trajectory. I generally favor the 250gr shockwave, but 295 or 348grpowerbelts are also a decent shooter out of this rifle.
