I want one. Can't wait to see a report on one.

Quick question. How much powder do you think you could burn in that 24in. barrel? Do you think I would still be able to use 110gr. of BH209 and get it all to burn. Say with a 300gr, bullet?

I don't believe BH needs a long barrel to burn. It's more like smokeless in that regard.

110g Blackhorn powder works well in my 24" and 23" Omega X7 pushing 300g Deep Curl bullet. However, i cannot honestly write it 'all' burns, because i just don't know. What i can write is it is accurate, reliable, easy to use, and is my 'go to' load. Another load that works in my rifle(s) is the same powder load behind the 270g Deep Curl.

110g Blackhorn powder works good in my Knight rifles too, but of course they have longer barrel.
