Open sights? What distance?

When all else fails in a INLINE rifle I start at 80 grains of Pyrodex RS and a 250 grain Shockwave. I can normally get that to start grouping. Start at 25 yards and shoot a three shot group. It should be VERY TIGHT in the group. Then kick it up to 90, 100, and so on until the group starts to open up. Move the sights to be dead center bull.

Then move back to 50 yards and try the load that did the best for you. What kind of group did you shoot here? If it was good, then move back to 100 yards and do it all over again. Be sure to swab between shots.

Now I do not own an Omega, but have handled them. They feel like a real nice rifle.
