Im shooting the thor lightning 297's through a traditions pursuit G4 NW legal. I am curious as to any who has used this combination's accuracy and what their velocities have been. I haven't found any load data for the 300 grain class that goes above 100 grains. I was shooting 110 grains of 777 and getting 1650ish. Opened a new lot of 777 and went up to 115 grains and got:
1699 (squeaky clean barrel)
1731
1727
1734
1737
Excellent velocity spread but wondering what anyone else is getting. I cannot use blackhorn 209. Limited by Oregon and Idaho regulations. I tried the fury's but I dont think I am brave enough to push those hard enough to slug into the lands and rifling. One shot today looked a tad sideways with a 115 grain load. Group with open sights and the thors was about 2.5 inches for 4 but one flier made it truly 4 inches.
