New (to me) .54 Knight

[rugerbh103]

Picked up another MK-85 off the forum classifieds. It is stainless with a black synthetic stock. Nice gun, other than my mistake. I got to aggressive removing the scope base screw closest to the barrel. It is broken off flush, so a trip to the gunsmith is in my future.

I plan on shooting it with the factory sights or maybe a peep. I placed an order for the purple sabots from MMP. I'm looking to find an accurate load with T7 FFG between 90-100 grains.I have heard good things about the Speer .50 325 grain jacketed HP's, but cant find them in stock anywhere. The only .50 bullets that seem to be available are the Hornady 350 XTP magnum or the Sierra Sports Master 350 JHP. Any recommendations between the two, or hold out for the Speers?

Is the best bullet you will find for the MK 54s. Barnes 50cal-275gr is also very good.

You can buy them directly from Speer too

Thanks I hadn't looked directly at their site. I wonder what the shipping time is. Everyone seems to be slow lately.
