Default Accura and BH-209

I got out over the weekend with my CVA Accura and some BH-209. I tried the powder last year but had hang fires after the first shot. Ronlaughlin made me a Breech plug and I will say it performed flawlessly, 20+ plus shots without any hang fires. But I just could not get a good group to save my life. I tried 90 & 100gr charges and a bunch of sabot and bullet combinations with no luck. 3 to 4 in groups were the best I could do @ 100yds. Finally out of frustration I went back to my set up from last year, I put the OEM breech plug back in loaded up with two white hot pellets, Barnes TEZ 250gr with a MMP HPH-24 sabot and win 209 primer and was printing sub 1 inch groups again. For some reason my gun likes the white hots. I will play around with it again next year but for now with the season right around the corner I will stick with what works.
