My .50 Grey Hawk has never grouped well with PRBs. I tried various heavy conicals and pretty much concluded that it really only likes 240-270gr in sabots. This is a pre-QLA barrel.
Yesterday I tried 300gr .458" JHPs in sabots, and they printed elongated holes at 50 yards, so are just barely stable. Hornady Pa Conicals (240gr hollow base) loaded fairly easily, and grouped OK, but I'm trying to avoid buying expensive projectiles. I had cast up a batch of Lee 250gr REAL bullets, and they showed promise from the first group. They aren't difficult to load without wiping between shots, so may be the answer for this barrel.
