I ran into the same thing with my Black Diamond when I bought the Hornady SST's. Now the Thompson Center 250 gr Shockwaves will go down the barrel. What I suggest is pick up a set of Harvester Crushed Rib or MMP HPH-24 sabots and put the SST's into them. They will then load down the barrel. Shoot them with about 90-110 grains of Triple Se7en 2f and I think you will like the accuracy.

the SSTs would not load worth a crap in my black diamond i just got or the traditions deer hunter i had been using. i could barely load the shockwaves. my simple and deadly solution...powerbelt. simply put in the experiences in my rifle and my buddies omega, they are absolutely awesome.
