    I shoot the power belts and B209 in my paramount with the 285 ELR. 98 grains weighed and I’m cutting holes at 100. It’s never going to be bullet to bore, custom muzzleloader accurate but I believe the .45 cal ELRs perform just fine. Every deer I’ve killed with them is just as dead as my TC Omega deer and my Savage Smokeless deer. 
     

    That said, I certainly would prefer to have some more bullet competition in the .45 space without having to smooth size my own bullets. 
     

    Legacy sounds like he just got a bad product which is super time consuming and ultimately frustrating as all heck. 

    You can shoot the pittmans, furys, arrowhead xld, parkers, etc..... buy them in the 40 or 45cal (depending on what cal you plan on shooting them out of) version and put them in a sabot... theres lots of options just depends on how much work one wants to put into getting the best results possible... me personally if i had a gun that i could only get powerbelts to shoot out of it id sell the gun

    For what ever reason I have chosen to be super selective this year.  I have passed on three nice bucks so far and it is eating at me. Bucks are waiting for the next estrous cycle and have resorted to moving only after the sun is down. Does have relaxed again as they are not being chased.  The next reshuffle will occur when appreciable snowfall will knock down the goldenrod and condense deer into their winter ranges in the timber.  Sleep in and stay sane and don’t bother hunting the mornings unless your group does deer drives or a cold front is approaching. The grind will continue the final week of the season. I am looking forward to a weekend of derby fishing for walleye then a week off to hit the second estrous cycle. 

    Banking on the second estrous is like bankin on winning the lottery.. food is starting to be the driving force again
