Default RE: Hornady LOCK-N-LOAD

ORIGINAL: cwillard

I am going to try these in my CVA Optima and I was just wondering what luck everyone has had with them. I would also like info on the Hornady XTP sabot bullet.
Don't know anything about the lock-n-loads but I have shot alot of xtps dialing in my new scope. I too have a CVA Optima and use both the 250g and 300g xtps. They are very consistant for me. So far, 100g of 777 pellets and 777 primer, I am an inch high at 100 yards with the 300g xtp. When shooting the 250g xtp, I have to back the charge down to 80g of 777 to hit the same spot.

I think when deer season comes, I will be using the 300g for hunting.

By the way, the best sabot for me has been the harvester crushed black in color.

Good luck....I love my Optima.
