Anyone use Hodgdon Firestar pellets?

If so, what have your results been? What bullet(s) are you using? What velocity and accuracy?

Cheers,

I tried them in my CVA Acura with TC 250gr Shock Wave. Don't know the velocity but accuracy wasn't that great, maybe 3-4 ins at 100yds. Could have been me but loose 777 and Blackhorn 209 will group 1-1.5ins. Dan.

Wow, that's not good. I bought a pack but have yet to try them. I normally use regular 2F powder, and it's normally in that 1-1.5" range, like you. If 3-4" is the best I can do, I won't be using the pellets.

You got them try them. Never know might group in your rifle or with a different bullet. I didn't try but the one bullet-sabot combo. dan.

Oh, I will. Just haven't gotten around to it yet.
