Cayugad, I pick mine up from Gander Mountain, or any Gun Shop could Order them in for you. They Load much easier for me, than the Hornadys, and they sure do Shoot Fine. Wish I had a Camera, ide Post some Pic, but then again, I dont even know how to do that. Just Point and click. Also try your Search Engine and type in Buffalo Bullets SSB, you should get a lot of Hits.

I have not had a problem shooting the 250 sst or shockwave in either of my muzzleloaders,using 100 grs of pyro select.But have found that sometimes the rifle and sst's preferr the short sabots.If lowering the powder charge didn't work.
I would take 3 of the sabots that come with the sst,s and cut off the pedals making the sabot about .755 in long in total length,and see how they group. If they work you can buy the shorter sabots a lot cheaper.If that didn't work I would get some JB's bore cleaner and give it a good cleaning making sure all the plastic is removed from the barrel.
If that don't work you will have to try someting else sometimes a rifle just won't shoot certain bullets no matter what you try.

My two inlines shoot great with 240gr XTP's mags. 2" or better groups at 100 yards. Very consistently. But both don't shoot SST's worth a darn. Barnes Expanders do great in them too. What I see with the SST's is flyers. I will shoot 5 shots, and 3 will cluster in 2" and then I get a flyer 3" away.
