PowerBelt Group Testing | 50 Cal Muzzleloader Testing
I love how you actually listen to your followers and show content we ask for. You do a great job sir!
🙏🙏🙏
I have a CVA Wolf as well. I use Hornady SST 250 grain. It is sighted in at 100 yards. I get less than 2 inch groups with 2 Pyrodex pellets. I have taken one deer with it at 80 yards. I like that combination.
My CVA optimo likes an areolite in 295 grains with 3 whitehot pellets which is supposed to be 150 grains of powder equivalent and the funny thing is I take my muzzle loader out and shoot it a bunch more than most people I put about 170 rounds thru mine this year last year was the year I bought it and I shot just shy of 100 rounds to me its one of the most fun guns to shoot and I don't mind cleaning it
Where do you get your whitehot pellets i used to get them at gander but they shut down
@ethanedler2553 they sell them at Dunhams sporting goods or sportsman warehouse
I have been using those fat green tipped power belts, like the ones you have shot the most. The best bullets I have ever used was the Whitetail Bullets, that were made in Tennessee, by a mom and pop company that went out of business. They were a molded bullet, that actually rode in the barrel rifeling, and you purchased them by whatever twist rate of barrel you owned. They were like magic, man. I sure miss those.
@slick dazzler Was that the Ball-et? Crisscross pattern, all lead, with a tiny dent for a hollow point and barely weighed more than a round ball?
@@user-bn3zo3mh5v Yea, that sounds about right. Had a picture of a deer on the box.
@@slickdazzler7330 That sounds right but my dad has some. They shoot great out of his ML. They shoot great! I have a hard time remembering much other that than the Ball-et, but they shoot great, especially out of a slow twist rate. Not a very aggressive looking bullet but they get the job done and are very accurate. When you see some, buy them all up. Not sure if they are made anymore. I am sure there are more deadly rounds by far, but these shoot super accurate.
I've been fighting with my Knight revolution muzzleloader for months now trying to get it to hold a group with little success. I just sincerely hope you cleaned that thing good after shooting it
My guy 🙏 PLEASE do a 200 yard group on this setup, please 🙏
I’d love to see the drop on this rifle with rounds this heavy
I should really get a muzzle loader. I’ve never had one. And your convincing me to just get one already and quit dragging my feet on it
Used to shoot ml with a CVA Ky my FIL and I built from a kit winter of '79 in VT. Changed from primitive sights to hunters sights, and had a lot of fun with it at BP matches, very accurate...
Good stuff! I enjoy watching different aspects of hunting. Like the crossbow and black powder videos. 👍🦌
Do you hunt Aubrey?
If not you should try it!
I've always wanted a muzzle loader. But never know just which one to choose. Always thought I'd go old school traditional. Even have a friend that builds custom. And if I buy from him I can hunt his private mountain (or hills in Arkansas) which he will only let traditional flintlock or bow hunters hunt) still haven't made up my mind
The problem with muzzle loaders is they all shoot differently than one another. We push ours to 200-225 on deer and elk. Past that I’d rather try getting closer.
My go to for the last few years in my CVA Accura has been a Cutting Edge 160 gr Raptor in a red crush rib sabot over either 120 gr of blackhorn or 120 gr of 3f 777. Both powders will run this bullet right around 2400 fps, only dropping about 6 inches at 200 yards with a 100 yard zero. Great for those long pokes across the bean field. Dont let the light weight fool you. I tried them a few years ago for a reduced recoil option for my wife and they performed so well that I started using them to. The combo is an absolute hammer on deer with probably a dozen deer taken over the last few years, and none running more than 30 yards with most dropping in their tracks with pass throughs on all but the most severe quartering shots and flawless expansion every time. The performance observed on game is much more akin to a centerfire rifle than a muzzleloader. I live and hunt in Tennessee as well. Mostly public land. Cordell Hull is covered up with them if you're looking for a place to go with good odds of bagging something. Let me know if you want some to test and I can send you my remaining supply.
I have a .50 CVA Buckhorn Mag. and I use the .245 Powerbelts. I'm going to try the .250 Aerolites myself. Thanks.
The wolf is what got me into the muzzelloaders.
It all seemed very complicated. But at the beginning of the year I decided to try my luck with a muzzelloader. It's been a fun ride.
I got mine knowing darn well it would take a while to get everything for it.
It took like a month to get everything but its definitely worth it.
My advice if someone is tempted is to just go for it. Worrie about getting the smaller stuff later.
Love those aerolite 250’s. Took a nice 9 this yr. Been using em for quite a while
Best video ever using the CVA WOLF with aerotips now and when don't u come to VA you can hunt my land
I have always liked the 245 grain power belt. At various yards up to 100- 125 . Performed well took many deer them.
Ive taken 5 deer in the last two years with 245g powerbelt and been very happy with the performance each time. 2 were close but three were past 125yds.
I've taken many w the 245 copper over the years
New subscriber here. Glad I found your channel, great videos. I’m ready for the .308 bullet drop video, your work on that series has been fantastic.
Really appreciate you watching. Filming the 308 next week
Awesome Mr. WHO_TEE_WHO !!! Great seeing some good ole' muzzle loading testing. I've always used those old green 245gr. powerbelts on my CVA Optima .50 cal. They're always super accurate. I use 100gr Triple 7 pellets and Triple 7 primers. I've thought of using 150gr of Triple 7 to bump the speed up, but never tried.
Hello. The vids are great. I started weighing the triple seven powder I use on a scale set to grains. What a difference. Super accurate groups.
I usually use 110 grains measured with a standard powder measure then put them on the digital scale and even all the loads to exactly 87 grains. I use Thompson center shockwave sabots in 250 grain.
Thompson center 50 cal pro hunter muzzleloader
I have the same CVA wolf. I shoot the 250 aero lite powerbelts. Our muzzleloader season open Friday after Thanksgiving.
Good luck!
Fantastic results. I’ve got a traditions buck hunter pro. It’s and older rifle I bought new but never really hunted with it much. I’m using it all season long this year with those aero lite 250s. I get the tightest groups with these billets too. Mine is zeroed at 100. I’m not looking for any long range shots with it either. I hope I get to test this bullet on a deer. I think they’ll do great.
Good luck to you on your hunt !
My wolf loves those 250gr aerolites too. I tried 3 different bullets before trying the 250 aerolites.
Great vid Sir! A speed check on those loads would be fun to see. Keep 'em coming! Oh, and clay block vids at 100yds!
Just picked a Wolf up myself for a Muzzleloader hunt I got drawn for in Texas. So far I have only shot the hollow point power belts 245 grain and the 250 grain aero lights. With two pellets of IMR white hots they both group very well about an inch and a half at 75 yards.
I’ve got a CVA wolf as well. 2 50gr 777 pellets, the Winchester 777 primer and the Hornady 44cal 240gr XTP sabots($13 for 20). 3 shots touching at 100yds. Cleaning between each shot so I know where my POI is on a clean bore.
Furthest kill was 176yds by the range finder. Luckily I shot it out to 150 and knew about what the drop was. Aimed a little further OVER her back and sent it. Dropped right into the bread basket. The muzzleloader would make a great “know your drop” video like you have been doing.
That's my vote in 50 cal too.
I use the 300gr aerolites with 100 grains of the 777 Firestar pellets and my CVA Optima V2 loves them. I haven’t pushed it out to 200 but at 150 the accuracy is outstanding. CVA for the win.
Like you, I hunt a heavy wooded area (Michigan's U.P. hardwoods) & I've never shot a deer further than 20 yards. For that reason I've always used the PowerBelt 245gr. hollow points. Thinking they would give me a quicker expansion. I would like to see a gel-pack comparison of the PB hollow points vs the PB with a polymer tip to see which expands quicker for the short distance we both shoot. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the video man I use to use the aero light bullets but had a few issues with them so I switch to the elr bullets this year and man those are some real good bullets with imr white hots.i shot my biggest but yet a nice 10 point last Friday evening with the elr bullets and had a complete pass through he was quarter away so shot placement was right in front of left hip and bullet came out in the brisket area and he acted like he was hit by a freight train.anyways u really like them and I will continue using them.just my two cents thanks again man and God bless
I appreciate the muzzleloader vids. I just ordered more Federal firesticks for my Traditions Nitrofire
Absolutely love your videos! I also live in Tennessee and would love to have the experience to hunt with one of my top favorite you tubers. Keep shootin who_tee-who!
Appreciate you watching bigtime. Wish I had a good spot to take you. All I have to hunt is public land, I can't even find hardly any deer 🤣
@@WHOTEEWHO I don’t live too far from you, come on out. Plenty of nice eight pointers around here.
I'm just trying to film as many does hunts as I can. Let me know, I might be able to make it over
@@WHOTEEWHO You’re welcome to come out. I live west of Clarksville near Dover. How can I send you a private message to give my phone number?
@@the1bulldurham Katie.adam11@gmail.com
Most muzzleloaders, just like centerline have "spotsweet" or favorite charge & bullet combo! My CVA favors 130grains Pyrodex and a 250 grain Aerolite sighted at 100yds.
Centerline rifles I meant.
where i live our deer limit is 1.... if you buy an Archery tag, Primitive Weapons tag and a Legal Firearms tag... you only get 1 deer... not one per tag, but, if you tag 1 deer, your hunting season is over.
Thanks for the video I've been waiting on this one.
250 gr aerolite for me, 100 gr white hot, 209 primer and Just a CVA OPTIMA THIS GUN WILL POUND TACKS AT 100 YDS
Sorry missed premier. Groups anyone would want. Good luck with blackpowder deer chasing. Night sir.
i use both the 245 grain and the 295 power belts. not a huge difference in bullet placement. If you can find the white hot powder pellets you should try them. very clean burn and easier to see threw. I use the CVA optima. this year i got 5 deer with it. I've never lost a deer using it. i did notice on the larger bucks the 295 grain keep the deer from running as far.
were gonna need a paper plate test with the old lead balls in the line up
I have an Optima pro hunter that groups basically a cloverleaf at 50 yds with the original 245s with one 50g pellet at around 1650-1700fps over a chronograph. I was shooting with 100g of powder till I found out it only drops about two inches from 50 to 100yds with one pellet instead of two. A lot less recoil,twice the number of shots and in my West tn woods it is plenty of power under 125yds. CVA makes some accurate rifles
Been waiting on this one!!! I have a CVA Acura MR nitride combo & always curious about wich boolets it wants to sling.
Thanks for watching!
I have been shooting the 250 grain TC Shockwave for almost the last 15 years. They have been damn near impossible to find. I was able to find some 200 gr I picked up but it's looking like I may be changing over to something different after all this time. I experimented with some powerbelts in my wolf probably 10 years ago. Due to availability I just may be changing over permanently now.
the green tips are the ones i use...really great bullet ...same gun as yours too...i've took a few deer with it never had one go farther than 20yds...100gr. pellet charge sighted in for 100yds.
Awesome!
Nice set up man i like it.
Are you using the big pellets for propellant with that rifle? Just wondering if reducing the charge slightly might bring those 245gr back into a tighter group. But if you are using the pellets there isn't much you can adjust without going to a different pellet. A chronograph measurement of the 3 rounds might tell something too. I'm really thinking about picking up a kit from Track of the Wolf to build, and fixing up my old 45 Kentucky longrifle.
Yup pellets
I need to check out the muzzleloaders
I shot a .50 muzzle loader. Brought a smile to my face. Will be looking for a pistol rifle combo!
Great vids keep ‘em coming. Good luck this hunting season who tee who.
I like the 295gr hollow point power belts with 150gr of triple 7 powder. That’s always been a great set up for me.
Appreciate you watching
I absolutely love the 250 power belt dropped a deer in its tracks at almost 90 yards
Awesome job brother as always
I going have to try these out out in my .50 cal Harrington Richards. I'll more than likely will be using 100 grains of FF Black powder or pellets.
Killed my biggest buck with the 245 powerbelts in my CVA Accura. Had a platinum pb not expand as it blew through the deer and a small tree behind the buck. I am interested in the ELR.
Have you tried any of the Hornady Bor Loc bullets. I have an Encore, and I shoot CSA power belts in it. They shoot good, but someone was saying the Hornady shot better.
Yes, I can’t wait to see you out laying the smack down on some Whitetail Deers 🦌
Gotta love a black powder rifle throwin boat anchors down range !
Would like to see another gel test using these bullets and rifle
I have a Traditions Buckstalker. I use powerbelt Aroelite 250 grain.100 yard zero i took my first muzzleloader deer at 128 yards with that setup
I also have shot a bunch of Deer with the 245 grain Powerbelts. Nice test. I might try some of the 250 . I am shooting a Knight Muzzeloader. Also very inexspensive gun.
I wonder if they would work in my 50 cal air rifle (air force texan lss)
I have first cva wolf I use 100gr triple 7 with a 180gr xtp hollow point in a sabot, it is the same bullet I reload in my 44mag. I am sighted in at 100 yards have taken deer out to 200 plus no hold over a very deadly combination, my friend uses same set up never let's us down
I'd be interested to see how powder makes a difference. In this video you use the pyrodex pellets, could you test it, white hots & triple seven pellets?
I found powder and large rifle primers today, lots of em
Woo tee yeah I think I'm going to start conceal carrying again y'all all stay safe out there love you all be safe I'm out hear with my CVA wolf trying to bag a buck all I see is turkeys no deers but lots of turkey can't wait till turkey season
I shoot plenty of deer aiming down at an angle. Getting the deer to come in close is a skill.
I just got a wolf too. Going to try the 290 grain Barnes t-ez over 77.2 grains (by weight) of blackhorn 209.
Great shooting with a nice rifle!
I have a CVA Optima LR that I shoot the Powerbelts from! I would love to see a 150 yard grouping and maybe gel or a clay block at 100 yards.
I love the muzzel loader content. Even though I don't own one and its not on my next 5 peeeew list
Fingers crossed hoping my .50 Accura LR-X, 120 GbV of blackhorn 209, sending a 295 grain areotip will smoke an elk.
I have the cva Optima and use the areo lite and love them sighted in at 100 yrds
I've been using the hollow points from power built in my side hammer Tradition
All those Shots would be minute of Deer, Our Muzzleloader season in Bama is only 4 days
Love all your vids. How bout a muzzleloader cleaning vid.
Good vids keepit up whoteewho
I use the 295 grain hollow points over 2 50 grain pellets in my cva optima dead on @ 100 yds.
All seem very accurate. Happy hunting.
I love my cva wolf and I would put it up against any muzzle loader
Love those 245 coppers!
Have you ever used the 295 grain hollow points? I just bought a 15 pack
Yes I have. Did fine
Are the 250grainers lead? , I would go with the copper but that’s just me, unless I was going for a head shot to conserve meat or something.
I believe if all the area I was hunting was around 5-0 yards I would go with the iron sights or the fiber optic sights!
I shoot 240 xtp hunters and get one hole groups at 100 yards
Great video 👍👍🦌🦌
Thanks for watching Lance
Just picked up my Wolf 2 weeks ago, where would I get a scope mount/rail for it? Not sure of the measurements of the rail screws. Are they special made or pretty much standard? Appreciate your time and help.
Any aussies here know where we can get these rounds from? Or even modern muzzle loaders I barely see any
Try the hornady 240 grain xpt they are taco drivers out of my cva optima
Is here in New Mexico you're only allowed to hunt one weapon choice so if you wanna hunt what rifle you put in for rifle hunt or any legal sporting arm i
Is this rifled gun? Thanks for vid..
Yes
I’ve used the 245s and get 2”- groups at 100 yds using 100g of 777 powder
Would you do a video on cleaning the Wolf?? Also, do you swab between shots??
I wire brush between shots. Clean after done shooting for the day
Don't know anything about BP shooting, but, why would you have a "break-down" barrel on a muzzeloader? I guess I just don't know for sure how that works.
The best reason I have for converting to a breakdown muzzle loader is honestly just ease of cleaning. It’s so simple and easy, it’s almost idiot proof lol. Also nice to have a hammer instead of a slide to cock imo.
@@aputts09 Great idea, didn't even think of that. So, where does the percussion cap go?
I've never gotten into black powder or muzzle loaders but for under $200 I may have to.
Powerbelt brand I have used for about a decade and their pretty accurate.
Had one not open up this year on a buck at about 40 yard's and didn't even passthrough, not sure what happened
Were you able to harvest the buck?
@@jgrass5814 I would assume he recovered the animal to be able to tell the bullet didn’t open up or penetrate all the way through the animal.
@@chevyon37s correct. 245 grain aerotip. Young buck went 200 yard's. Planning on switching powder. And upgrading to 209.
I think it's called black horn 209.
Currently using triple 7 by hodgdon. (
@@chevyon37s I thought he didn’t see evidence of a pass through( tissue, hair, blood etc.).
Myself, I never didn’t have evidence I hit it hard at 40 yards even a chest hit through the shoulder. Always had some nostril spay even when it was not a pass through and the bullet was disintegrated
Thank You one for the algo gods
🙏🙏🙏
Definitely puts big holes in the paper!
🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲
High powered sniper muzzleloader.
Can u let me know if you get a complete pass through with the aerolite I've heard they dump all there energy in the the deer and don't come out the other side
I have taken many deer with a muzzleloader. Regardless of the bullet used I very rarely get a blood trail
What kind of powder r u shooting? And how much?
Where you hunt public in Tennessee. I do to
I haven't this year. Did last year 25 times and saw 1 deer. The public within an hour of me is a waste of time
Fun video!😀
Thanks Nathan
