I shoot 44.5 gr of VihtaVouri, with a 250 gr T/C PTE bullet, & a MMP Sabot made by Muzzeload Magnum Products in Arkansas.
This the flattest most accurate shooting ML I have ever had my hands on. It will stack'em @ 100 yds. I set a 3" high @ 100yds zero for my Leupold. At 200 yds it is dead on. I have killed at 220 yds with no hold over.
Grouse, you should have held on to that gun, I think Savage has stopped production on them altogether.
