Did you do their sample sizing pack?

Our group also use the 460 grain NE in three different .50 cal ML here in Oregon. We’ve killed 7 bucks and had fantastic results with very short if any tracking.

You might want to wait a couple months. It is very likely that Idaho is going to change their regulations for 2024.

F&G seeks input on muzzleloader ammunition proposed rule

Idaho Fish and Game is seeking public input on a proposed rule change that would allow projectiles made of metal or metal alloy, and with accuracy tips and pressure bases, to be used in hunting seasons designated as “muzzleloader only.”

I have the same muzzle loader and was wondering the same thing. We will see what they come up in regards to regulations.

No excuses would be my first choice. My second would be parker traditional hunters. Fury and Thor make a full bore 50 cal too

Once these regulations come out maybe we can bounce back and fourth on what loads are working for one another.

Any idea when they’ll decide? Seems likely in the push to remove lead from the environment.

 

[ElDiablito]

I think lead will still be legal under the proposed regs.

I also used No Excuses 50 cal 460 grain the last 2 years for two successful cow elk hunts. I did use their sample sizing sample pack to get the best fit for my rifle (.500" diameter, Knight Ultra-lite).
