Title: Nitros through a Nova?
Post by: mmusso on April 07, 2011, 12:28:00 PM
Anyone shooting nitros in their Nova? I've found some H517T 4x5x7, H510C 4x5x7, and H378i 4x5x7 or straight 7s. Not sure which one I should look at since Nitro recommends H51013A. Will be shooting a JH.655. Any experience with these?
Thanks,
Matt

Don't have a preference of 3 or 3.5". Would the 378i pattern better than 510c due to all being 7s or would the higher payload of the 510c out pattern the 3"? Getting ok #s with 3.5" 7s h13 but want to increase range and can't afford to buy both nitros to test.

Nitro has a new 3-2-7 load, also...the H321.  Interesting...

I've never tried any of those loads but I have shot the 51013a in straight 7s and they patterned great.  With my Nova/Jellyhead .655 they will put around 325 in the 10" circle at 40 yards.
