ORIGINAL: Absolute Giant
I just got my new scope put on my omega last weekend and I had the opportunity to try it out. I really liked the Nikon Omega Scope. I was shooting 250 grain Shockwave Sabots backed by two 50 grain pellets of 777. Now I just need to practice, practice, practice. Guys that have an Omega what's your favorite load combination? I will be using my muzzy for deer hunting.
Thanks
My Omega shoots about 2" groups at 100 yards with .452 Nosler Partitions HG 300g (HG is for Hand gun), Crushed Rib sabot, 100g of 777, and Federal or Winchester primer. I swab between shots at the range and in the field I carry a bore butter patch to swab with, I really have never had to reload. The 300g Noslers shoot thru deer, even when bone is hit. This is just me though. Also the ballistic coefficient of the 300g bullets is much better, for example here is your SW BC for a 250 and 300g.
Best Wishes, Chap Gleason
