[QUOTE="Buck Buster, post: 1531271, member: 99718"] The BH209 is the powder that I saw the guys using to shoot the longer ranges but again, you must not understand what I am saying ! I have NO INTENTIONS of shooting long range with a muzzle loader, when I said my type of gun was good to 300 yards that is from what I have read about others shooting this gun with the BH209 and I think some were using three pellets of a number of types. I will only shoot out to 200 yards that is the max that I can quickly shoot with the scope that I have, I have 100, 150, and 200 yard marks in my scope that I can use once I know the yardage the animal is at ! And as I said it has all kinds of energy at 200 yard and is also very accurate at that range ! That is the farthest that I have shot it ! But judging by the way it splintered the back of that tree, it would definitely kill a deer at 300 yards even with the load I use ! More power to you and others that want to shoot long range with a muzzleloader, as for me my long range shooting will be with my 308 Norma magnum ONLY ! I didn't put my results on here to get an argument started, I put them on here for someone who was looking for them, if they found something better GOOD, as for me I am more than satisfied with this combination and its accuracy, and the way it flattens deer, really nothing to improve on for my hunting situation! I would like to recover one of these bullets sometime to see how or if they expand at all, perhaps I will have to hit the shoulder of a deer to recover a bullet ! [/QUOTE]
