Default Bought a TC Black Diamond

Have wanted A TC Black Diamond for years after i scoped one for a guy. Finally got one: It is the 22" barreled gun with plastic stock. A friend bought the gun new when a local store closed several years ago. It was NIB when i got it. Got the gun and a cheap 3x9 Bushnell scope for $135.

Put a Redfield 4X Widefield scope on the gun using Weaver mounts and rings. The gun will go to the range next week on my day off.

Has anyone fired the 350 grain FPB from a TC Black Diamond?

I have not shot them out of my XR so your results will be very interesting.

That's a great price!My first ML was the BD with SS barrel/black stock.I don't know why but all it would shoot well were sabots.Tried several different brands/weights of conincals with and without bore buttons but could never get them to shoot well.That said it was wicked accurate with most any 240gr-260gr sabot rounds I tried.Around 80grs of Select seemed to give the best accuracy in mine.Took a buck and a doe the first year I hunted with it.Really nice gun!
