Default RE: Loose Powder

Thanks to all for the info.

Chap - It really looks like you have put a lot of time in on the Omega. So far the 300 grn SST / SW has shot the tightest groups for me and I really like how the bullet mushroomed and stayed together in the picture you posted. I will try some of the other bullets posted in time just for fun if nothing else. Working on a load right now for a ML Muley hunt in Utah this fall, so if nothing else, I currently feel I can go out with the 100 grn Pyrodex / 300 grn SST / 3P EZ load and it will perform, but definitely going to keep working on it. I am looking forward to trying the crushed rib sabots when they show up as well. Given I cannot use a powered scope in Utah, or here in Nevada, 200 yds is farther than I am probably comfortable shooting. A good 150 yd load will make me happy. I am using the powered scope to work up the load and then I will practice with the set up I decide to use for the hunt.

Cayugad - Youhaveobviously put time in on the BDXR, I am currently in an enamoured state with the Omega but will have to pull the BD out and try some of theloads that you have put together.
