.50 Encore load for TC Maxi-Hunter 350
« on: December 01, 2006, 07:40:57 AM »
I've been trying to find a load that will hold a sub 4" group at 100 yds with triple 7 loose powder.


I do all my shooting by spit patching (first shot on dead clean barrel, no lube, folllowing shots I lick a patch and scrub the barrel with both sides of the patch, and then dry patch with both sides of a patch then reload).

Just wondering if anyone's got a charge that's worked for them.

If your not getting at least 2 inch contact TC and get them to send a replacement bbl.

I am not sure you will get any better of a group with that bullet.  The encore really is designed toshoot a saboted bullet.
