Default RE: t/c omega what is the best setup for distance?

I have never met a T/C Omega 50-cal that did as lousy as your Knight did at 200 yards (9" circle). You said you never hit paper at 200 with the Omega.. right??

Then it is possible your shots with the Omega were in a much tighter group just below the paper

ok now, what ya talking about ? i said my night hit the 9 inch circle at 200 yards i did not say the group was 9 inches the group of 4 shots were in a 4 inch circle about 3 iches down from the center of the bull. now if im aiming at the same size circle at 200 yards and dont hit the paper with the omega how is that better then the knight , i dont care if they cut holes just low of the bullseye if they dont hit the paper what good is it. the knight and omega hold 3 inch groups at 100 yards im just saying i use a scope on both guns and i do no adjustments and the knight outshoots the omega PLAIN AND SIMPLE ..

what bullet/bullet grain are you using in the Omega? How can you say one is better than the other when all you've tried is 100 grains?... geez! With your Knight, Hornady, Barnes & Knight packaged bullets work best. With the Omega, T/C packaged bullets work best with the optimum grain size for the 50-caliber being either 240 or 250 grains.

quote -- have the tc omega 50 cal, i was wondering what is the best way to group at 150 and 200 yards ? i shoot the tc shockwave 240g and 100 grain 777 and group a 3 inch group at 100 yards but i tried 200 and cant find the paper,
