RedNeckSape, I shoot a T/C Triumph and T/C Black Diamond and my results are similiar to some of the guys who have the Omegas.

My load combos are pretty much standard-issue but work great for me. I use Triple Seven ffg loose powder(100-110 grains). Winchester Triple Seven 209 primers. 250 grain Shockwave or Hornady SST(50 cal. sabot/45 cal. bullet combo). I'm getting good 3-5 shot groups with this set-up: 1 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards average with 1 1/4 inch groups not uncommon. I have also tried a few of the 200 grain Shockwaves with even better accuracy(3/4 inch at 100 yds.) and looking forward to testing more of them.

The T/C U-View clear powder measure works great with loose powder.

Check out Warne Maxima scope rings and Warne 1-piece base for scope mounting

There are a heckuva lot of good scopes out there for up to $300.00. Four scopes i have heard good things about in the $200-$300 range:

Bushnell Elite 3200
Burris Fullfield 2
Nikon Omega
Leupold Ultimate Slam

Look at swfa.com or opticsplanet.com for good deals on scopes if you don't have anything local. GOOD LUCK
