I think Jim from TN likesto get a beating. I don't think I've read anywhere on these sites where that much powder is needed for accuracy etc. 110 grains is the max , but I am new to this so someone is shooting mag loads?

RE: Hornady FPB test!
 

Encouraging. I will try FPBs tomorrow. Hope they load and shoot well in the new Genesis. Not too much time left to test loads / bullet combos.

Nice shooting
I have a pack that I have not tried yet.
I shoot at my lease and bow season is in so I don't want to mess anyone up by shooting

I just ordered some of them.. so it will be interesting to see how they shoot. If they shoot like a Shockwave, I think Hornady has a BIG seller here.

I have been shooting them off and on, they seem to like a 100gr and shoot very accurate they do shoot below the normal POI, a couple inches below on the Triumph and about 6 inches low on the Omega. Lee

very interesting post Lee.. any idea why they would shoot low? Is it perhaps their weight difference from say a 250 grain Shockwave or something?

Sorry if Im mistaken, but I think I recognize your avatar from the savage board on modernmuzzleloader.com, are you going to try them in a savage? Its too late for me to mess w/ them in mine, unless I want to spend bow season at the range. I really would like to know how they do though. The weak link in the savage is the sabot and these would bring the savage to an even greater level of performance, if they shot good.

They are 350 grains. They should shoot to a different POI.

RE: Hornady FPB test!
 

Why is that? If you can get the muzzle velocity the same, and the two bullets have the same friction coefficient, shouldn't they shoot identical trajectory curves?

But, I guess to get the same muzzle velocity you'd really have to add more powder charge, so I actually think I've answered my own question, but I have no real idea.
