209-45 encore. What to shoot?
« on: October 23, 2003, 10:00:25 AM »
I just got my TC Encore 209-45. I would like to know what bullets are shooting best? What size bullets? What kind? How many powder pellets to use? (2 or 3 50 grain) Which kind of powder? Is it consistant to 200 yards? 150 yards? Thanks in advance for any help.  :shock:

I posted the above info in the Blackpowder forum, it seems to work for me.  Other 45 shooters seem to have good luck with 120 grain charges of 777 also

If you are going to shoot pellets, try 2 of either Pyrodex or Triple 7 and the 275 grain clad HP PowerBelt.
