Give it a shot This is what I shoot as well; only I shoot the 290gr. and Blackhorn out of my Triumph. They are an excellent bullet, I have recovered a few of them from deer I shot and they have perfect expansion every time. I try to stay away from the bullets with lead cores, seems that a lot of time they fragment into pieces and loose their weight or they just don't expand very well. Give them a try, you won't be dissapointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban_Redneck Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 300gr Shockwave w/black sabot, Fed 209A primer, 115gr Blackhorn 209. I haven't shot at any fur or experimented with loads much. I started hunting the day after I after stumbled on that load and will leave well enough alone til spring. Consensus on the 'net seems to be T/C's need to be broken in by shooting or some JB Bore Paste, BH 209 likes tight bore to sabot fit, and magnum 209 primers improve consistency. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tecumseh Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 100 gr of blackhorn 209 with a 250 gr hornady sst low drag sabot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeyenut Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I just patterned my Triumph today. It shot unbelievable groups with 100gr 777 pellets and 240gr Precision Rifle Dead Center Sabots. I was able to cloverleaf 3 shot groups from 50 yards consistently, and from 100 yards they were sub 2 inch groups. I also shot 245gr Powerbelts and they patterened nicely, as well, but I prefer the Dead Centers for hunting. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remind me to give you some Powerbelts if you come down for a rabbit hunt this year. Powerbelts don't like my Encore too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentioned it to Tom a while back, I think we can arrange it. We can stomp around here if not in Danville. Plenty of bunnies around. Probably gonna wait until deer season is out though. Rink's Encore loves Powerbelts btw Interesting. Well, you guys are welcome to them, I won't be using them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand waiting until after deer season- I will be chasing deer until then also. Hopefully, i can anchor one with the Triumph! Rink's Encore shoots those Powerbelts amazingly well. As much as I hate to admit it, he is a great shot. After all, he is a SWAT counter-sniper, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I tried to come up with a shooting slam for him, but I just couldn't. He's a dead eye. Too bad he's such a sissy when it comes to internet forums though.

Lance86 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I shoot 250 gr powerbelts w/ 150 grain Triple 7. The powerbelts load MUCH easier than the Shockwaves, and I get great groups @ 50 and 100 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
