100 yards, from a rest 250 gr SW 90 gr 777 rem 209 3/4" group. I didnt get to take it iut long due to haveing to load cattle and it getting dark. I can tell you this much, that thing doesnt like more than 90 gr. at 100 it opened up to 4 inches. Thursday is a new day and i will be heading out again, barring more cattle going out!

When I lightened the amoutn of 777 I had better groups with my encore. When I had it 120 grains or more my groups were not tight. 100 or 100 grains I am doing much better, the shockwave is the best bullet I have shot so far.

RE: 250 Shockwave Trajectory
Shot out to 150 yards today with right at 2 inch groups. pretty good cross wind. I really like this combo. Gonna take her on out next chance i get see how she does at 200 and farther. lol, I think i may need a bit more powerful scope though. lol

RE: 250 Shockwave Trajectory
I would suggest buying some loose powder and start at 85 grains and work up until the groups start going out. I got better accuracy with loose powder than I ever did with pellets. I use the 200gr shockwaves though.

Shockwave 250
Im new to the muzzleloading realm and I just purchased a T/C prohunter. I've shot several types of bullets through it with no better than 5 in groups at 100 yards. I just bought some 250 gr shockwaves and im gonna try 100, 130 and 150 grains of 777 pellets. Does anyone have any recommendations to make meshoot 1 in groupsat 100 yards? Also, does anyone know the trajectory of these loads? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
