Hi guys, I am shooting a Thompson center triumph bone collector and I was wondering if anyone shoots the Barnes spit fire t ez 250 grain out of their T/C Bone Collector and what type of groups you are getting. Thanks

This was shot out of the TC Triumph 50 cal. at 100 yds, I believe it was with the 250gr TEZ, possibly the TMZ, I'll have to check my records when I get home.

The load out of the Triumph we use currently is 110grs of BH209, 250gr TEZ, Harvester smooth black sabot for bullets 300gr or less.

I shoot the Barnes .250 gr. TEZ out of my Omega. I get excellent groups using the Harvester short black sabot and 100-110 gr of BH209.
I have shot several deer with this load, I like this combination much better than the 250 gr. shockwave I used to use.

My middle name is 'Cheapskate" and I'm fond of these below. (50 for $21)

Plastic sabots from Harvester can be purchased there also.

Ask for Carlos
Ed's Gun Shop 5560 US 1 HWY Vass, NC 28394 (910) 692-7936
The Barnes can be bought in bulk from Luke at smokelessmz.com for a bit less than other vendors.
His Harvester sabot pricing is fairly reasonable too http://smokelessmz.com/bullets.html
Grafs has about the best price on Harvester sabots ive seen. As low as $5.79/50

I am familiar with Carlos and his establishment. Do you have any idea if he supplies any home-made bulets... lets say from someone that produces 320 grain Lee REAL bullets?.... other than emailing mountainman?
I have a new Knight ML and I like smoothing things-out in the bore first with conicals. Instead of bruising my shoulder shooting No Excuse 460s, I thought I would try a box of Lee REAL 320s.
Then afterwards, move into the sabot/bullets I have planned.
