Default RE: Black Powder loads.

Good info! And I found out that sometimes lower powder is more accurate. I am going to be hunting elk next fall and I just purchased a new Omega. Been trying to get powerbelts to group. The didn't until I dropped to 90 gr (roughly equvielent to 100-105 gr pyrodex) with 348 gr bullets and they are grouping great!

Sometimes less is more, and I know that this load is more than adequate to take an elk out to 100 yards, which is my max range with open sights.
