Load,recommendations for the bighorn 50 cal.

I have a bighorn and can't get consistent groupings. I've tried several sabots and "powders". I am now trying triple seven(150 grains) w/. 240 grain apps about and still no good groups. What do you use?

I have spent many hours behind the trigger of Knight Rifles. Some of my loads that work for me are the following I start with 80 to a hundred grains of T-7 or RS pistol behind a 250 Barns or a 250 bloodline. I have started using the Harvester Crush Rib Sabots with these two bullets. 90 grains works best for me, but ever gun is different. Another good combo is 100 grains with 240 XTP. The plunger guns Bighorn, Littlehorn, LK-93 and so on and so on do not work well with Blackhorn 209. I would start at the bottom with a bullet that you like and work up until accuracy go's away. I think you may be trying to burn to much powder. good luck
