Default RE: Magnum charges.........??

ORIGINAL: MoNoFletch

I just recieved my manual for the KRB. It shows a chart with the different loads. Example.....275 Red Hot will drop 17.5 inches at 200 yards with 100 grains of powder. Put the extra 50 in there and it decreases to 12".
I am off to Bass Pro today. I will let you all know what I find!!
The 275 Red Hot is the Barnes XPB pistol bullet (Barnes X bullet PB for Pistol bullet), it is excellent if it shoots well in your gun. Since it is marketed by Knight, it must or they would not be selling it and recommending it in the manual. Good write up on the bullet here:

Try some Blackhorn powder with that bullet in your KRB. Lets us know how she shoots.
Best Wishes, Chap Gleason
