I must admit I struggled prior to finding this board but with all the help here I had the Omega shooting MOA. I was done messing with the Omega.

Then, at a gun show, I found a never fired Disc Elite 45. I bought it and in one range session it was zeroed right in. Boring!

Now I have the bug. This forum fuels the bug daily. I buy a TC Hawken on the cheap and absolutely love all the different combos. Maxiballs, PRBs.. I'm going try sabots today. Plus the open sights keep you guessing. Was a bad load or was I off?

The bottom line... I love tinkering with the Hawken as a scoped inline is just too easy. That's accuracy is your objective. There are other things to play with.

Anyone have a good 54 Renegade for sale? it
It's next on my list.
Mines not for sale. But if you check Gunbroker or ebay you can find a good deal. Even if you just find the complete stock minus the barrel. Then go to GM and buy the barrel you want for it. I love my Renegades. Almost wish TC would start making them again. You could always buy a Lyman new. Probably be cheaper then putting together a Renegade.
