Nice shooting! I have to go into town and get a few things, plus stop at the Pro Shop and see what he has for T7, not bad with 120gr T7, is that the highest recommended load for T7, could you go to 150gr.? Or would that be over kill and you'd suffer on accuracy? Im 6'6'' and 240lbs, I like to walk softly but carry a big stick, ML that is. Sometimes them darn Coyotes like to run off 200+yds then stop and look back, I'd like to suprise them!

122 grains of T7 is the normal highest amount of loose T7 that can be shot in most guns following manufactures specifications. My Knight will allow 150 grain, but 120 is way more than enough... the only reason I shoot 120 is for elk hunting with a .458/300 grain bullet. All of my other loads are either 100 grains or 110 - with 110 becoming my most accurate in all of my inlines...

Get a box of Hornady 10mm/200 grain XTP's, matching blue sabot, and 110 grains of T7 and you will flat out surprise the heck out of a 'yote' - problem is that it will make an awful big hole....

Would that be a pistol bullet? and do I have to get the sabots seperatly? or do they come togeather? I have been getting the 240gr XTP Mags from TC in the bubble pack of 30, I know what they do for making a big hole. You cant beat the XTP's.....

It is a pistol bullet (40 cal) and you would need to get buy sabots separately. If you were going to try this combination - I would suggest a2 packages of Harverster blue 'crush rib' sabots. I use the MMP 40/50 cal blue sabot but I know that it will fit my guns, but a little tight so the Harvesters would be a little easier to load.100 grains of T7 gets me about 2100 fps with the 200 grain XTP's...

Separately. Check Midway, Midsouth, Graf's and others for best pricing http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=1916&dir=278|281|293|32 3|672

Be best to get them from one place but you can order direct from MMP or Harvester for your sabots.

Thank's, I'll give Allan a call, I just looked and I have 2 bags of the MMP's that I forgot I had becasue I been buying the TC XTP's with them so I never used them. I have 2 different sizes, I'll try em all and see what works best for fit and accuracy. And while Im at the Pro shop I'll see what he has for sabots too, never looked there because I never needed them. Mabey He'll have the Blue 40/50's, he's got a-lot of stuff, mabey even the 10mm XTP's, after all it is a Pro Shop, and I should support my local Business. Better go, times a wasting, almost 5, colses at 5........I'll let you know............Ron
