I had the winchester apex (same rifle) i could put 3 shots into a dime size hole @ 75 yards with the 275gr Aerotip powerbelt with 80gr pyrodex rs. @ 100 yards this would shoot 1" groups.

I also have the .45 winchester apex and it is the most accurate muzzy I have owned. I did have to give it a trigger job though. I got a couple 3 shot groups into one ragged hole at a 100 yards with powerbelts and 777. I did switch to blackhorn 209, it stays cleaner and gives a bit more velocity.

I like the gun enough that I just ordered the .50 kodiak pro from Cabelas bargain bin.

Thanks
for the replies. Do you know what max load would be for this gun?
Thanks again.
