I was using the PB 295 grain in my CVA Firebolt 50 cal. but made the switch over to the TC Shockwave 250 grain. This move was mainly due to a recomendation regarding the Shockwave on this board and plus the cost is somewhat less. I went to the range this past weekend and sighted it in and the Shockwaves did very nicely so I think I will stay with them on the Firebolt. I also tried these on my flint and what a time I had loading them in. I was shooting round ball but I think I will try the Powerbelts in my Traditions Deerhunter 50 cal the next time I go to the range which will be after the regular rifle season is over, DEcember 13th.
The PB were definately easier to load than the Shockwave.
