[QUOTE="dogbuster0006, post: 2522204, member: 39547"] 100 grains of 777 and a 250gr Thompson center shockwave bullet have been the best shooting combo I’ve tried. 1.5” groups are plenty good for me, I’m not shooting past 200yd. I like the pellets for easier handling. That load is flat shooting for a ML and has done very good on KY deer. The 200-250gr seem perfect for my situation l, I’ve tried heavier bullets but they didn’t n’t open up like I wanted. Inside 100yds most have been bang flop on shoulder shots. Bullet will still open up out at 200yd and leave a blood trail Ray Charles could follow. My dad has killed more deer with my ML than me and swears he’d rather use it in rifle season if we hunted thicker woods. [/QUOTE]
