Omega Loads
Hello all, I am new to ML and have a TC Omega w/a thumbhole wooden stock....although after reading Statjunk's posts on accuracy am already rethinking.
Anyway, I thought I'd ask for favorite loading options. Pellets/Powder 90/100/110 probably. Shockwave 250 seem to be popular, and I have a BDC-250 scope so I'd like to keep it at 250gr. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I would just like some popular options to play with so I can find my fav.
Sorry if this has been asked a million times, but I went back 8 pages and didn't seem to find anything on Omega loads specifically.

if using loose powder you should get as much velocity from 120 grains as you would from 3 pellets anyway. Are you planning on shooting 2f or 3f or just pellets? Those are all factors. I would start looking for the right combination with 100 grains and the 250 shockwave and experiment from there.

RE: Omega Loads
I really think that my Omega just has a stock issue. Once I shimmed up the action she shot 1 3/8" at 100 yards which is excellent for a muzzleloader though there are better out there.
I'm sure yours is a shooter so don't worry too much.

RE: Omega Loads
I'm sure you'll be very please with your Omega. I love mine and plan to get the Laminated thumbole stock for it soon I hope. As far as a load for it. I would try to stay with powder instead of pellets. Triple 7 is a good powder but I would go with the new BlackHorn 209 if it's available to you. I would shoot a 250 gr. shockwave with a Harvester short black sabot,Win. 209 primers and 110 or 120 gr. of BlackHorn 209 powder.This combination has proved to be very accurate in my Omega as well as other Omegas and Triumphs. Give this a try and let me know how it works. Hope this helps.

I shoot an Omega and really do like what it can do...
My deer hunting load is 110 grains T7-2f, MMP HPH-24 sabot and a Nosler .451/260 grain Partition. Been using this for years, but becuase of the cost of Nosler now-days my back up load is going to be the same but I will switch to a Speer Gold Dot... .452/250 grain Gold Dot... the .452/300 grain Gold Dot may actually be the better bullet.
Might check this thread...

Good luck with your Omega...
