I never needed more than 70 grs of 3F Schutzen pushing a 250 gr REAL in my 50 Flinter. I use the same load in my Knight as long as the shots are under a 100 yards. Works fine as the full freezer shows. It's heavily wooded here so long shots would be a rarity.

I am not using a darn thing deer won't come close enough or stand still long enough for a shot! If they did I shoot a 300 gr cast 429 in green sabot and 11o gr shockly gold 3f
