Swift: Nice Job getting it done there. Can't wait to hear how the Rifle shoots as you work at it. Curious what Bullets and Powder you chose for the shoot in exercise??
Sabotloader;
Good Looking Green Ulite there!! Wish mine would hurry up and get here....Would have been quicker to drive to Utah and pick that rascal up myself instead of waiting on the Mail.....
Anyway, Do you have a specific powder and Bullet configuration you would recommend for the "shoot in" with mine when it ever gets here?
For rifle season I am shooting a 458-300 grain Bloodline in a HPH-24 sabot with a 110 grains of T7-3f. For ML season shooting the conicals - I shoot 90 grains of T7-3f with a shot card over the powder and under the bullet. I may switch that to a MMP sub base if the State approves which I think they will as it just acts as a wad. and in real life 90 grains of T7-3f is probably over doing it. 70/80 grains would be just fine.
I did get the Bull Shop .503 @ 460's Ordered but got to wondering if those were the most appropriate to shoot it in?
They really are not that expensive so probably as good as any, you might need a short starter to start the bullet down. I have been able to just start them down with my thumb and then push them down with the ram rod. You are probably going to want to get a 50 cal loading/cleaning jag for your rod.
Thank's.
