[QUOTE="white92coupe, post: 2918820, member: 1707"] Depending on how well your new (to you) rifle patterned with the bullet and powder combo you chose, I would recommend trying out a few different combinations to see what your rifle likes the most. I have a .50 cal CVA Optima pro that will not let me put a sabot in it. They are either all too small and fall straight down the barrel, or are so large they cannot get past the muzzle. I tried several combos of powder pellets and the CVA powerbelt bullets, and settled on 100 grains (2 pellets) of 777 and the 295 grain powerbelt aerotip. If I go down to the 245 grain powerbelts my gun is a pie plate pattern compared to damn near MOA at 100 yards. [/QUOTE]
