I RECENTLY BOUGHT A TRADITION PERFORMANCE 50 CAL. BEEN USING
HORNADY SST SABOTED AND 2 CILINDERS OF PYRODEX AND 209 PRIMERS.
MY MUZZLELOADER IS THE BREAK OPEN DESIGN, MUCH LIKE THE H&R
SHOTGUNS.-
DOES ANYONE HAS EXPERIENCE WITH THIS ONE?
WITH A MUZZLELOADER IS IT BETTER TO USE BLACKPOWDER OR THOSE PYRODEX OR TRIPLE 7 CILINDERS?
IM THINKING ON BUYING A REMINGTON OR SAVAGE IN LINE, ARE THEY
GOOD???ANY PICTURES OF GROUPS WITH THEM???
ON THE PAST USED A THOMPSON IN LINE WITH GOOD LUCK, THE BIGGEST BOBCAT IVE KILLED WAS WITH THE 50.
ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED, IVE NEVER FIRED GROUPS WITH THE MUZZLELOADER-WHAT IS THE CORRECT WAY TO DO IT?
THANK YOU.-
 
CZ,

I have a M700ML 50 cal with a Leupold M8 4x scope. Using 100 grs 777 and a .451 cal 260gr PT, my best groups are 1" at 100 yds.
This combo has taken many WT deer from 20' to 167 yds.

I bought a T/C Omega 50 cal earlier this year. I put a Leupold VXIII 2.5x8
on it for 200 yd shooting. Again, using the same .451 cal 260 gr PT and 120 gr loose 777.

Pop here has a Savage 50 cal ML that was a tack driver using smokeless powder. I'm sure he will comment when he returns.

JD338 YOU ARE TALKING IN GR- WEIGHTED OR BY VOLUME.-
NORMALLY I DISPENSE BLACK POWDER BY VOLUME.- ALOT OF TALKING ABOUT WEIHTING CHARGES, LOGICALLY ITS NOT THE SAME BY WEIGHT THAT BY VOLUME.
WHAT TYPE OF BULLET ARE U USING?
IM USING HORNADY SST AND 240GRHP SABOTED.
I THINK THAT IN UR REM YOU CANNOT USE SMOKELESS POWDER, I WAS THINKING ON THE SAVAGE USING SMOKELESS AND THOSE SPECIAL SABOTS FOR SMOKELESS POWDER.
HAVE U USED BARNES?
DO YOU HAVE PICS ACTUAL KILLS WITH UR MUZZLELOADER?
THANK U FOR ADVICE.-
 
CZ,

Powder charge by volume, bullet is the Nosler .451 cal 260 gr Partition Gold. It will give you an exit on a WT deer from any angle.
