Hey guys just wondering what works best for everybody accuracy and hunting performane.

T/C fan!

I shoot the T/C Encore with the 209X45 magnum barrel with a Nikon Buckmaster 3-9X40 mounted. Winchester 209 primers, 100gr of triple 7 pellets. Bullets are 180gr Hornady XTP sabots. It hovers around an inch at 100yds and about 2 1/2 inches at 200yds.

I have a 50 cal CVA Firebolt In-line, use Triple 7 100 grain pellets, 209 primers, Powerbelts 295 grain Aerotips. I also have a 50 cal Traditions, Deerhunter flint , use 80 grains lose Triple 7, and Powerbelts 295 grain Aerotip.

T/C Renegade Hunter w/ peep sight, 435 gr. maxiball conical, 100 gr loose pyrodex, # 11 percussion caps. I don't honestly know just what it groups, but anywhere that front bead settles it seems a .54 cal hole gets made. Offhand it's no chore to hit soda cans out to 75 yds.

T/C Omega 50 cal- 250 gr Shockwave, 81 gr (weight) 777 FFG. Shoots under an inch with some 1/2" groups.

Knight Disc Extreme 50 cal-260 gr. Winchester Platinum tips, 100 gr (volume) 777 FFG. Shoots into an inch and a half, but feel it can do better with weighed charges (been playing with the Omega so I haven't tested weighed charges yet). It will shoot 250 gr Barnes into an inch with 100 gr of FFG 777 by volume.

Knight Wolverine 209 50 cal-260 gr Knight jacketed sabots, 90 gr (Volume)Pyro RS will shoot into an inch. 295 gr Powerbelts with 70 gr. (Volume) FFG 777 will also.

My GPR groups inch and a half with 75 gr FFG 777 and a .530 round ball/.018 pillow ticking patch.

Since I've started weighing charges to within 1/10 of a gr, some of these haven't been shot with the weighed charges. The GPR has been shot with weighed charges equivelent to 75 gr FFG 777. The results given are those results, but I don't have the weight equivelent handy at the moment.

I'm Shooting a Knight USAK American Knight .50cal (#11 Perc cap) with a 1.5X4.5 Bushnell Sportview shotgun scope in see-thru mounts.

Best loads are 80gr of 2fg 777 loose powder with 300gr sabots - such as Hornady XTPs or SSTs or Precision Rifle Extreme or QT sabot rounds.

And shooting just as well are 90gr of 3fg 777 loose powder with 350gr sabots - like the Extremes or QTs. Also 90gr of 2fg 777 and 348gr aerotip Powerbelts are my 2nd shot backup for this load.

And when whatever I'm taking aim on has to absolutely, positively die on the spot - I'll load up 100gr of 3fg 777 loose powder and top with a 400gr Extreme or QT sabot...................kicks like a mule and will drop an elephant.

Most of my hunting has been done with .54 calibers shooting round ball or conicals. I have been working up a number of loads in my inlines and are going to give them a chance to try this year. I also want to shoot my .58 caliber GMB with 100grains of FFg Goex and a patched round ball. The power from the .58 caliber is hard to describe until you shoot the .62 caliber with 90 grains of FFg and a round ball.

So many rifles... So little time

I shoot a T/C greyhawk in 54 cal with a 2x-7x var VII scope. My favorite load is the powerbelt 348 gr hp and 100 grs of ffg black powder.

kinda depends what I am hunting. I use my flinter 50 with patched round ball over 75 grains of FFg black for most things, best accuracy in a hunting load for me in that rifle, but for big stuff; moose/elk sized I use 80 to 100 grains of 2F under a maxi hunter 370 grain or a swaged pure lead 444grain. it doesn't group like the roundball but gets through that tough hide like I need it to while being acceptable in accuracy to 75 yards.
