Thanks bud. I have almost everything I need to shoot now. I'll be going out Friday to sight it in and get used to a flint, and hopefully hunting on Sat if it all works out.

Plus, lets not forget the conical is going to retain more fps/fpe than a RB.

A RB has horrible SD/BC. Using two of them doesn't change that.

Can't be unless the balls stay together end to end all the way to impact, and also after impact. It's like a bullet breaking in half otherwise.

It's true that both balls would be like shooting the...

Yes, i've read about it, but I assumed they did it, because all they had were round balls. We have more choices now, and frankly.....I don't want to shoot 350gr of lead with enough powder to push...

I'll be using Goex 2f. Try that if you have some. No idea what grain load. See what works for you.

Thanks.

I agree about the snow. As long as it's not too cold and windy.

The gun is on the way to me still. Maybe a couple of days it should be here.

It better not be .517. A PRB will fall through. That seems big Ron. What size it your barrel?

Semi,
I wasn't sure about the power of a PRB for elk. I would still have used the same limitations for a conical. Just a little more insurance is all.

Lets face it. My limitation is the iron...

You're right. I'm not interested.

I know the limitations of a PRB, and I accept them. I wish others would feel the same. No matter what the weapon.

I'll do that bud, but I just found out that Hornady is discontinuing the bullet. No demand anymore. Not even in PA. I guess they can use any bullet in flint season. What a shame.
