[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5446852, member: 17"] Well, it appears to be true that Powerbelt Platinums [B]require[/B] a high powder charge to fly properly (for the skirt to engage the rifling). My brother shot Platinums the other day and said he couldn't even hit the paper at 100 yards with only 100 grains of loose 777. Once he increased the charge to 120 grains, he started shooting a group, but not as tight a group as with the aerotips. I suspect an even higher charge would tighten the group some. But I bet my gun couldn't even burn that much black powder in a 28" barrel. [/QUOTE]
