Just wondering what you smoke pole hunters are pushing through your guns. I’ve been shooting a 245 grain Power belt in front of 100 grains of pyrodex. Has anyone shot the TC Shockwaves or Hornady LockNLoads?
For whitetials, I like shooting the T/C ShockWave in either 200 gr if shots are going to be long, or 250 gr for closer shots. I also really like the Hornady SST sabots in 250 gr. Both these sabots are very fast and flat shooting. They are both poly tipped bullets that provides high velocity downrange and also promotes rapid expansion.
I shoot a T/C Omega and the T/C rifles shoot Hornady rounds very well since that is what T/C uses to test their rifles. Even then, it is always best to try a number of differnt projectiles to see which one shoots best with your specific rifle.

I agree on the Shockwaves… I was shooting 250gr. this summer as I was working up a load and settled on 90gr. of loose FFG – T7 behind them. At 100 yds I was getting consistent 1 1/2″ groups… I shoot a T/C Encore
