Went to the range today and tried all different loads and bullets @ 50 yards.

My best group @ 50 yards was with the TC 250gr shockwave with 90gr of Triple 7 powder. I literally shot through the hole 3 times.

I didn't have any luck with the PB 295gr HP's. The problem I had with them was the bullet would elevate and drop, but no windage adjustment was needed.

I have some 260gr Fusion I would like to try and might buy a pack of the Hornady brand too.

After all this, Im moving the target out to 75 yards and going to see how the TC Shockwaves do. Then move to the 100 yard mark and see the results. Im guessing with that group @ 50, I might as well stick with the Shockwave.
