Default RE: Powder Pellets

Guys,

I have a .50 CVA Optima Pro. I have hunted with it the last 3 years. I am only hunting white tails with it. I have tried Powerbelts (245AT and 295 HP). Had decent success with them. Tried Hornady 250gr. sabots and they loaded too darn hard but seemed accurate. Then I went to TC Shockwaves last season and fell in love with them. Loaded easy and was nice and accurate. I have only ever used 2 pellets of Pyrodex. Is there a need for 3?

Could I get accurate to 150 yards with 3 pellets?

I won't shoot much over 100 yards.

So far I have pulled the trigger 4 times on deer and harvested 4 deers! I do kill quite a few targets and boards this time of year though.

P.S. Cayugad, I would let the dog in! LOL
