Thanks again Thebear_78. I never gave much thought to using cast bullets. The Precision Dead Center is a cast bullet I shot for many years. Don't know if it's a hard cast.
I haven't completely decided on where and who to go with. I'm not a "book" hunter and don't carry a tape measure. I've...
No problem. I might just try some small magnum rifle primers to see what they'll do with the BH. I've used Fiocchi 209 primers (one of the coolest) without any hang or mis-fires.
I can tell you that the vari-flame adapters shrunk my groups considerably. In fact, I just re-primed some today...
I appreciate all of the input. I was leaning towards Barnes and Swift...just wanted some suggestions.
Thebear_78, Outstanding groups. I shoot an Omega .50 cal. Had it about 12 years. Sounds like you might be using the Vari-Flame adapters. I've used them for years with Triple 7 using small...

I appreciate the info. I have contacted the Barkers' and waiting on their response. They're probably in the back country. Since my post, I have looked at a map and it shows elk numbers are better on the east slope of the divide. The unit they hunt in is on that side, 442.
Once again, thank...
I'm planning to hunt Elk and Mule Deer here in a few years and would like input about hunting the Bob and any reputable outfitters that you would recommend. It can also be in the Scapegoat and Great Bear too.
Many thanks,
Paul
I haven't tried the ones you have. I have used the 290 gr TMZ's in my Omega 50 cal. T/C's bore are tighter than most. Mine came with the yellow sabots and were real tough to load, too hard.
I bought MMP Black HPH 24 sabots. That cured the problem. They are recommended for T/C's due to the...
You may want to give Jack Jr. or Keith a call. They might be able to help.
Good luck on your hunt.
