The T/C Shockwaves are really accurate out of the Black Diamond. The are really performing well with 120 grains of Pyrodex RS. The groups are fantastic. You can load the second one, but it gets a little harder. These are a definate hunting load because the second shot is possible without swabbing.

The T/C Cheapshots are shooting real well too. Not as tight as the Shockwaves but by no means a disappointment. They also load real easy. Once they are in the muzzle system of the Black Diamond they can be pushed down real easy. Another possible hunting load. I need to work on the powder charge with these.

On the .45 caliber 300 grain Hornady XTP and SST's they shoot wonderful if you can ever get them down the barrel. I really do not think there is any way I would use them in the field unless I carried cleaning patches and dry patches. In fact at my range, I broke the small ball starter with the sabot attachment, trying to push a XTP down the barrel. I had to put the starter ball on it finally, and actually smack the starter real hard to get is going then pound with the range rod until it got into the barrel further, where I was able to then seat it. Pounding on the tip of the projectile is not the way to an accurate load. If the gun is CLEAN they load all right.

The 370 grain T/C Maxi Balls load fantastic and shoot fantastic. I was thinking they might make a quick back up shot in the field should it ever be needed. You can load these without even a short starter.

I still have not tried the Precision Bullet Silver Lightening yet. I was waiting until the new CVA came in then we were going to see how they shot in both rifles. I have not tried the powerbelts for the same reason. When the new rifle gets here (the 2nd of January so promised UPS[:@] finally) I am going to spend an afternoon in the yard trying out all the different loads, powders, rifles, and just have a heck of a good time........

I am also considering getting a .50 caliber 320 grain LEE R.E.A.L. conical mold and make up a bunch. If they shoot as well as the Maxi Balls, it would make a nice hunting load and some fun shooting in the backyard also. I was also thinking of getting a .452 diam bullet mold and make some of them too, and them put them in a harvester sabot and see how they shoot. If the inlines don't like them then I will shoot them out of the sidelocks....
