[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4340534, member: 15054"] I have 2 Bobcats and at one time they called them another name. Amazingly accurate with 295gr Powerbelt Copper plated hollow point. 70-90 gr is all you will ever need. 90 is max for best accuracy in mine Pyrodex RS. That stuff is dirty as you know and if you pour the powder in then tamp the butt on the top of your boot about 7 times the powder will settle in the base and turn the corner and get under the nipple. Seat bullet firmly NO pounding on it. Now remove nipple and make sure there is powder under it if yes put back together and cap it. If no then trickle some grains into the hole the nipple screws into and then install nipple. My Bobcats shoot fast only 1 boom none of that click boom stuff from delayed ignition and the key is tamping and removing the nipple and make sure powder is under it. Front blade is too tall for 100 yards and will need filed down on it. But that brass blade is held in place by a tiny stem and is easily broken off. Recoil on that super light rifle is fun and will give you a punch to the cheek if you get a solid cheek weld. It will clover leaf the above load. TC1000 bore butter is HORRIBLE and if you use it then expect a crud ring in your rifle a few inches above the load which makes follow up shots hard to seat the bullet. I use Beeswax mixed with coconut oil in a pan and warmed until incorporated. I soak patches in it and use that for lube. I just recently after 15 years of using pyrodex found out it will rust barrels but 777 not so much. You may know all this. That is all I got on the bobcat rifles. I really like mine. [/QUOTE]
