Default My New Bone Collector

I bought the TC Bone Collector and bought a Bushnell DOA 250 Bone Collector scope went to the range today. My load is 250 Gr TMZ barnes sabot with (3) 50 grain triple seven pellets and remington 209 primers OMG it is so accurate 5 shots can be covered up with a half dollar at a 100 yds but the only down fall is you have to clean betwwen shots it is to hard to push the bullet down if you do not clean it so then i sit up a target at 200 yds so i use the second dot on the cross hairs and fire dead center bullseye the average of the six shots threw the cronagraph is 2170 ft per second i think this is going to be the ulitimate killing machine

If you ever get the chance to run the same load and the same number of shots with out wiping[more accurate that way] with Blackhorn and give us a comparison report. Lee

I have the same gun but wondering why you are going with 150 grain? At 100, I only do 100 grain of blackhorn 209. Just curious!

Nice shooting... any time you can shoot a group like that, you have to be happy. Anything comes near you will be in serious trouble.

it is not a "down fall that you have to clean between shots " its part of muzzleloading ,take your time ,let the barrel cool down and enjoy yourself ..i see u r useing my favorite bullet BARNES MZ ..i also use t7 pelets but use only 2 my choice ..
