Thanks Encore! I have 50 Pitman so will see how they perform.
I have veggie wads, but did not use them on those shots. What is your experience with wads? Worth it?
Got my rig! Mounted a Zeiss V4 6x24 on it.. shots 6-8 after zeroing the scope, shot off bipod (Harris) on the ground..
112 grains of BH 209, Arrowhead 300 XLD @100 yds - 2508 FPS.
Next time I go out, will let 300 Pitman aeromax fly - Atlas now mounted- hope to get all three in the same hole!

Thank you for the reply- should have been more clear by results = FPS / groups
Getting a Bestill .45 built on Rem 700 to my door soon- Jeff recommend to start with 112 by weight of BH - I have seen what it does with 87.5 of Benchmark- I can't wait!!
Thanks Andy
SML powder not allowed in NM or AZ during ML season. Which is pretty stupid, the most accurate powder should be allowed- I have witnessed a hunter shooting ML with black powder MUCH further than they should..
I got one mounted on an older rifle - optically it's perfect - it does have some marks and a small dent in the turet cap. It has the mil dot reticle. I can text pictures to you- shoot me a PM. Thanks Andy
