Found a good load for the Disc Elite...

3 777 pellets and a Knight (Barnes) PBT 290 grain in the EZ load sabot. Three shots at 100 yards measuring 1 5/8"... not to bad in 90 degree heat. Anyone shot a critter with these bullets? Here in S.C. it will mostly be deer and Hogs for me... some of our hogs can be in the 400lb range so I like that this hot load shot well and that big 290 Barnes should hit with a thump!

Damn good shooting! I know what you mean about that 90* weather. After 5 shots today i was done. Im waiting untill evening to try a new load out. Seems like you're enjoy the rifle. Things can only get better as you practice with the rifle.

Kevin, they do load nicely... the bore on my Elite is very tight. I tried to load a 250 Barnes MZ in a HPH 12 and all most busted a gut [:@]but these are as they say EZ...
