As the Title says lets get members opinions /facts/testing on the slide scale into this Thread Topic. What i know of it other than reading may fill a thimble of actual solid data. I have many times in the past ran with someone else's info cause it sounded good n flunked. Yeah sit there with egg on my face n a dunce hat on my head n looking dumb !
Couple things i can say about my 2 .45's just shoots holes in the known flavor of the day. 1st my T/C Hawken 1:48 perc. seems to love prb's, but i am not a rb lover ! My Scout also a 1:48 twist n is a rock sparker loves 200 gr REAL's n H4540B sabots w/XTP 200 gr bullets. Now ain't that a kick in the head. Lets roll what cha got n get some data rolling
 
Smoke, I bought a Knight Wolverine from Flounder. 45 cal. 1/30 twist. I was recommended to shoot 350 grain lead conical bullets. I shot 70, 75, and 80 grains (w) of T7 into the same 3/4" group at 65 yards. Cardboard wad between powder and bullet. I was shooting standing up off of an end table with a tote then a jacket on top. Not the best rest so I figure those all shot to the same point of impact. The other holes were adjusting the scope. Is this what your looking for????
