[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 1263413, member: 33046"] I guess that's why they never printed it in the manual, and the reason Western hasn't published it. Its pretty easy to determine the maximum charge, which Western has, but that's never been the issue with the ignition system. The way those HUNTING rifles will shoot as they're designed, it'll always be more the shooter than the rifle. Swabbing isn't that bad and we've been doing it for a couple hundred years, its just that BH gave people (in general), a propellant that didn't always require it. However....... if one was to shoot for the tightest possible groups, especially at long range or in competition, you would still have swab between each shot, even with BH. DO NOT under estimate how well pellets (T7) may shoot through these rifles. I have outstanding targets at 400 and 500 using pellets and a full rest. No it won't happen every day, because I'm not practicing it everyday. However, if you shoot enough, they'll shoot excellent long range groups, well beyond the ranges/capabilities of other production rifles. Thank you for that Remington call and update. [/QUOTE]
