I'm no expert but since you don't have any replies...

Its been my experience that both of my rifles shoot best around 90-100gr of powder. It seems to me that if you try to push the bullet faster you pay for it with accuracy. Again, this is just from my experience. Some of the other guys around here that try alot of different loads could probablyverify this. If your rifle shoots good with 100gr. then thats what I'd shoot.
Depends on the gun, more often then not the Encores like to shoot around of 150g of pellets and 125 of loose. Omega shoot good around 100 to 110. My Knight Disc like 100 loose, I usually start there and if I get 2" or less at 100, that is fine for me. I don't try to get 1" groups at 100 with tons and tons of tweeking. If a bullet powder sabot and primer don't give < 2.5" at 100 I am not interested in it.
