![]() Shot to much velocity they do tend to break up in the animal. The lead is such a soft lead you really need to be careful of the powder load you might use. I will tell that lead Power Belts can and normally are a very accurate bullet, but their shaky 'Terminal Performance' troubles me. I really dislike Idaho regulations, restrictions on what bullet you must use. My point being with that is that it does not take a magnum load of powder to be powerfull against that size of an animal. Last years bull had a sharp quartering away shot, entered behind the rib cage on one side, and exited through the shoulder on the other side, he didnt go far and the shoulder still didnt stop the passthrough. And with those 330 grain harvesters have great results.ġ passthrough on a small bull at 155 yards, 1 passthrough on a big bodied bull at 135, both broadside. When I went from 90 to 100 grains, my groups opened up a little, and then a little more when i went to 110 grains. Then I started taking it up 10 grains at a time after I felt like I was comfortable with how it shot. I started with 70 grains of powder and could group amazingly at 100 yards. In my humble opinion, there is no need, and thats not what muzzleloaders are meant to be. I have met a few people who are adamant on using as much powder and magnum loading as they can get away with. What I do have to say is try with less powder and work it up from there. But also as is said, i dont think they are Idaho compliant. I shoot 330 grain bullets on 90 grains of Tripple 7. Personally couldnt get very good grouping past 100 yards, so I kept my shots under that.īut as with others on here I became a devout using of the harvester hardcast. Hornady Great Plains bullets arent too bad, I shot them for a while. ![]()
