Nice shooting. The load I've been using in my Pursuit is 110 gr. 777 FF,250 gr. Shockwave with the yellow sabots, and Win .777 primer. The Pursuit is a lot easier to load than my Omega. I use the same load in my Omega with the exception of the sabot, and that is the Harvester Crush Rib.

You should try these bullets and sabots, The T/C Mag Express 240 grain XTP, in your Traditions. I think I can shrink that group with some practice. Especially now that I have confidence in them. And loading them was no problem at all. Even with a dirty bore. On my targets the C after the numbered shot stands for CLEAN BORE and the D after the numbered shot stands for DIRTY BORE.
On the last two targets all shots on each were with a clean bore.

The ShockWaves shoot nice groups and put the smack down on deer. I used to use the XTP's in my Knights and they did the trick. I don't think the Harvester Crush Rib sabots will be good in the Pursuit, they'll be to loose.
