I'm gonna start going through loads with the Traditions Buck Stalker as soon as I get the scope mounted. Do you guys see any difference using loose powder vs. Pellets. I was going to zero it in using 100gr (2 pellets). I was just wondering if loose powder was more accurate or held tighter more consistent groups. If so, what type of loose powder do you use and how much? And also with loose do you have to use a wad under the sabot?
