That responce was interesting to say the least.

I also asked Knight once, what the max charge of powder which would burn through my 24" Disc barrel and they told me any more then 120 grains was a waste. Yet they also said if I wanted to shoot more then that to try three pellets.

So I guess pellets are a better way to burn large amounts of powder. I will say that 120 grains on my Disc is plenty though...

Have you ever shot a powerbelt with three pellets? What kind of recoil does it have? Also why would you shoot 170 grains of loose Pyrodex RS with a conical like that? Were you seeing if the rifle would explode or something? Just curious. Thanks for posting that responce though. I have a CVA Staghorn and shoot 90-100 grains of loose but was always cutting back the T-7 to 80-90 grains.
