Re: bullet's and loads for .52 cal
I can share my elk hunting load.... .458-300 gr. Lehigh/Bloodline in the Knight sabot or a MMP Orange sabot (for a 50 cal gun). 120 grains of T7-2f or BH-209, there really is not much difference started by W209 primer... bad medicine!crockett wrote:thanks guys......i ordered a few different bullets and the silver sabots.

This would be an outstanding venison getter though... .458-220 Lehigh/Bloodline
