Default RE: New to Muzzle loading

I shoot an Omega and a Triumph and you will find them very accurate guns if you go to the trouble of finding the loads the gun likes guns are like finger prints no two are exactally the same. Very few have many loads that group tight with the 150 gr load most shoot there tightest groups with loads between 90 and 130 gr { just happen to have an Omega that has one load that shoots best with 150 gr RS and 200gr SW. My 250 load is 120 gr RS and a 250 XTP, SW or Gold Dot while the 300 gr load shoots best with 110 gr. the Triumph likes 250 Gold Dots and 777 but its shoot groups half that sixe with the new Black Horn 209 powder and at 200 fps higher velocity. So plan some trips to the range with a variety of powders and bullets and sabots finding the right sabot is always the first step. Its all part of the fun. Lee
