Just wanted to find out if anybody would be willing to share what loads have produced the best results for them?I am shooting a new traditions pursuit II XLT Guide Gun. It is the wood stock 24" nickel barrel version. I was planning on starting out using Triple Seven 209 Primers, with 120 grains ofTriple Seven Powder, and a 295 grain Copper-plated Powerbelt.

I can't help you much with a Pursuit Arkieduckman. Never owned one, but came mighty close when I bought my Mustang. I sure did like the feel of the Pursuit I was looking at.

Anyway, I think I would start well below 120 grains of Triple Seven. That load is going to really WHOMP you under a 295 grain bullet. Were it me, I would start with 90 grains at 50 or 75 yards. Shoot a threeor five shot group, them move up to 95 grains and shoot another group, then to 100 grains, etc. etc.

I have a Pursuit LT and i stuff 110grains T7 and orange MMP sabot with a 300grains Hornady .458 Bullet in it. I use Rem StS Primers .

i got cloverleaf results every Time .

+1 on starting with a lower powder charge. If you're going to use the Powerbelts- I'd start out with 80 grains of powder and see how that does. Based on a lot of testimonials, I'd keep it under 100 grains of powder if you're going to use Powerbelts.

My hunting buddies shoot Traditions - they use 80 or 90 grains of Triple Seven and a 240 grain Hornady XTP - really good accuracy and lots of dead deer. You could bump up the powder charge if you're using an XTP too, but I'd still start low and work your way up to see where the "sweet spot" is for your rifle.
