I am using 100 gr. of triple7 under 195 gr. DC sabots from Precision Rifle and 25ACP with CCI small rifle primer's. Very Accurate and deadly on deer.  :D

Alex T,

I use a .490 round ball, .018 pillow ticking patch, 90 grains GOEX FFG in my Lyman GPR.  I use a 295 grain Powerbelt and 110 grains of triple 7 in my Encore.

What caliber/gun/bullet are you shooting?

Will be my first year with this gun,but I've decided on
105 grains of T7 over a Black Jack Hill 265 grn. HP
Devestator in a Nosler sabot.The BM3 is just not
available here and too expensive to mail order :cry: .The
T7 is working nicely with this load.I'm using the 25 acp
system as well,with CCI #400 primers.

Last fall, I used 110 grs. Triple Se7en ffg, 200 gr. Shockwave in the blue sabot, .25 ACP conversion w/ CCI small rifle primer out of a .50 caliber T/C Omega.  I'll be using the same load again in this gun come ML season!

Alex,

What kind of gun are you shooting Triple 7 and the 295 grain Powerbelt in?  Are you getting satisfactory or unsatisfactory performance with your load?  

The title of this thread is "help" so I assume you're not getting satisfactory performance?  Help us out here man.... :-D

We'd all be glad to "help" if we knew what the problem was.   :D

The Omega is a very good M/L'er. If you are getting satisfactory results, why worry about what you heard.  :-)

Yeah, I've heard bad stuff about them too.  However, animals that I shoot with them have not heard all of that stuff and they fall over dead.   :-D
