We were back at the range this week with the CVA Accura LR-X and the goal was to find a good load for an upcoming spring bear hunt. We were testing with Thor Hammers and Pyrodex Select and we were able to find a decent load at 105 by weight of Pyrodex Select. We are planning to fine-tune it a little bit and get the group to 1" at 100 yards but I think that this is a good start. I will include the specific results below. (Please excuse the random shot off to the right. That was from a different group.)
Powder: 105 by Weight Pyrodex Select
Bullet: 250 Grain Thor Hammer
Primer: Federal 209A
Group Size: 2.16"
Average Velocity: 2,266 FPS
