Guess I thought you would already know...
but for all Tradition break opens:
The maximum load of powder is 150 grains of loose or pellet powder, be it BP or Pyro.
The maximum load of T7 loose is 130 grains
This information was taken from the Traditions site - which you can look up and verify.
There are no weight limits established for sabotted projectiles or conicals in their maunal.
This comes from the Genesis manual..
WARNING! ONLY 2F OR FFG Black Powder, PYRODEX® RS, or TRIPLE SEVEN® FFG should
be used in this rifle.

Ah Gees! why did you have to go and ask that question???
maybe this will be easier than I am thinking.... Which disc is it? is it one of the new Disc elites or Extremes? If so they are awful hard to beat. If it is one of the older Disc's then maybe it might be toss up - but remember new is new and used is used. Will you get to inspect this disc prior to buying?
On the surface I think I wouldpurchase a Knight Disc Elite or Extrem before I would purchase a Rem Genesis, but without seeing what you have in mind that is a difficult call.
So in effect I have not helped a bit...

Well anyway.. regardless of that. Just remember that even if you buy a stainless barrel, you are still going to have to maintain it as you would a chrome moly barrel. You might get away with a little more time before cleaning but the stainless will corrode just the same.

RE: new mzl queston
Most of those people don't know alot especially about the make up metals or the process of coating. I am no expert, but I do know a little. You cannot coat with stainless to my knowledge. Most barrels are made of high carbon steel. Then some get a coating ie. nickle, black oxide, or wheather shield. And then there is the stainless barrel. These barrels have carbon steel in them to help with the machining, since stainless is a gummy type of metal. When I bought my Omega I opted for the stainless because of the more forgiveness in cleaning. Now I know you just can't forget about it and it is just as important. I am glad I bought my new ML and I can't wait to finnish building my Traditions Hawkins.
