what is the best load you use i have the regular optima im goin on 100 grains i just need a load now thanks.

I would first try 100 grains 777 pellets with 250 gr shockwaves or hornady SST. I use the 250 shockwaves with 130 grains 777 pellets. You probably will get good accuracy as I did with 100 gr 777, but I increased to 130 to reduce the drop. This load has worked extremely well taking deer out to 200 yards without any problems.

I have a beartooth magnum, which is an optima under
another name plate. I would try 2-50gr. 777 pellets.
That works great for me with 225gr. aero-tip powerbelts.
I tried combinations using 50gr. & 30gr. but mine likes
the 100gr charge best. Very accurate, very easy to load,
very easy to clean. Please post your results. Will look for
them.

well im waiting for the money to get my scope and then ill go out and by a starter pack. i was going to use 100 grains didnt know what bullets to use. also whats easier pellets or powder
