  1. Just found a great Ballistic chart on Powerbelts web site that shows the velocity difference between 100 grains Pyrodex Pellets and 150 grains Pyrodex Pellets for each weight Powerbelt bullet. Go to - www.powerbeltbullets.com and look for the Ballistic Information link on the right hand side.
  2. I've got the CVA Kodiak Magnum in 45 cal. I have shot 150 grains in the Pyrodex Pellets with a 275 grain Powerbelt Copper Aerotip. My gun seems to like 100 grains better in the Pyrodex Pellets but the 150 in the Triple 7. I have got some of the Buckhorn 209 on order and will let you know the results when I get to try it.
  3. Steve - sorry to hear about the passing of your wife's father. Prayers sent from South Carolina.
  4. I have taken quite a few hogs down there and some pretty nice whitetails considering the area.
  5. Finding anything for 45 is getting tough. seems like everything is 50. I have a 45 as well and shoot the Pyrodex pellets and Powerbelts. I have a jug of the Blackhorn 209 on order to try. But the Powerbelts are about the only route unless you want to go with the Barnes expander which is a 40 caliber in a 45 Sabot but they highly suggest you get the Barnes Allignment tool to use this one. Hornady also has a "Great Plains 45 Sabot. Midway USA has all of these. Hope this helps, Good Luck.
  6. Hang Tough Dakota, Prayers on the way from South Carolina.
  7. I agree with the "Most traffic" thought. Leave it here.

  14. Up across the top under the heading for this thread. You will see several choices right above where it says "Post Reply" you will see "User CP". This will allow you to change your password to one you can remember on your new computer.
  15. I forgot to add to the original post that I already have him a Daisy Red Ryder NRA Edition. You all are right in that should be his first gun, but I am looking for what should be his first 22. I am still leaning toward the Chipmunk.
  16. Glad you are doing some better Jeramie. Hang tough and do what the Docs say. More prayers sent from South Carolina.
