I bought the Remington Ultimate last year and this gun is lights out. I used it on an elk hunt last year and settled on a load of 92gr Blackhorn and a Parker 300gr Match Hunter. This gun was consistently shooting 1" groups at 200 yards. This gun shoots so clean it's not like other blackpowder...

What gun are you shooting? I did a conversion on a Traditions and it work well without problems. It's worth a shot I believe and I don't think you will be out by doing it.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-04-16 AT 10:15AM (MST)[p]I finally got out to shoot this morning. I decided to go with the Parker 325 MH. Shooting at 100 yards I started with 95 grains by weight of BH209 and ended shooting 93 grains by weight of BH209. The gun seemed to preform/shoot tighter groups with the...

How many grains are you using? When I was shooting pellets in another gun I had there was a noticeable difference when I installed the 209 conversion kit. With the 209 primer you are going to get a hotter and more consistent burn which I believe is needed if you are going to be shooting pellets.

I've never shot something that large either, but in talking to him he stated he was shooting them for elk this year and sent over some pics and data on the load.

Just ordered some Parker MH 325's. Talked with Bob and he is great to deal with. Will try these out next week when they arrive and I will report back.

Thanks for the update. I hope to get mine out and shooting this weekend as well. What are you using to measure powder, standard reloading measure or using Blackhorn charging tubes? Also with using the BE from Parker have you needed to get a different loading jag?

Thanks for the feedback. Not sure if you guys have checked out Randy's website; www.randywakeman.com. He has a lot of reviews/write-ups on using various loads and bullet combinations as well as a lot of reviews for specific loads and load date for the Remington Ultimate. I am going to start...

Looking to see if anyone has had any experience using Berry's Manufacturing Blue Diamond bullet/sabot. I cannot find out much, if any info on these. I was planning to use Parker Match Grade due to reading a lot of reviews on them. I will be shooting a Remington Ultimate 700 and using Blackhorn...

Thanks for all of the great advice. I agree about just getting her out there and hunting. As much as she loves to go with me she has been begging me to give her a chance with her own hunt. I have looked at a lot of the areas to hunt deer and by the pictures that you posted Don I'm thinking we...

I looking for some help as to what one needs to do to hunt in Arizona as a youth non-resident. My daughter has taken her hunter safety in Utah, but would like to hunt deer in Arizona. She will be 11 this year, and as so I believe she can hunt being this age. I have read about possibly having to...

Does anyone have a set of Leica Duovid's, and if so what is your thoughts on them. I am thinking about purchasing some and wonder if it worth it to have the extra change in magnification.
