Thanks...I'll watch this one. 

I've been working on an SBE for 10 years now.  It shoots "okay" and I'm not dissatisfied with it, more a project than anything else. 

I shoot a Rhino .673 with 2oz Nitro 4/5/7.  When I fooled with it last week it put right at 200 into 10 inches at 40 yards.  The 3 inch Magblends put about 150 into 10 inches.  Both patterns were very even and both shells shot to the same point of aim.

I noticed on the Nitro site that they recommend the Jellyhead .655 along with a .660 Rhino (I believe that is correct) and I am starting to suspect that my .673 might not be quite as tight as the gun might like.

Ditch the lead loads and get some Hevi 6's and 7's.  That Jellyhead .655 will be just the ticket!!

I'd recommend that you give what you have a try. I would not invest in anything else until you see what you have. One or more of those may work quite well for you and if that's the case, you're ready to go.

Best of luck this spring.

Thanks,

I would bet that the Win. and the Federals do best.
