Knight Disc Extreme .52

[MIDeerhunter67]

Evening,

I decided to pick up a .52 due to the price, I have a 45 and its awesome, it will be passed down to one of my sons when they become old enough to deer hunt. I decided the 52 will be mine, anyone got some good load starting points? I was planning on starting out with a .458 barnes for the socom and see what happens. Just using T7 2F, anyway any suggestions or tips with it would be fantastic!

Thanks, Turner

110 gr BH209 or 777/325(.458) GR FTX deer only take a step or 2 usually.

I think ill try the hornadys first then, barnes are 2x the price, have you noticed any issues of those ftxs just exploding on impact?

i use the knight (barnes) 350 458 bullet in a silver sabot, 115 g BH209. This was deer death last late winter season and shot 3 shot clover leaf groups at 100. They are expensive though.

No closest deer I killed was about 60 yds. They hold together.

Yes they are, but barnes are my favorite i shoot the 40 195 expanders in my 45 and absolutely love them
