Justin, I use 100 grains of triple 7 loose behind a Hornady green sabot and a Hornady 240 grain 44 cal. XTP. This is in an old Knight inline converted to 209 primers. I have cut holes at 50 yards. I have a 1.5-4 power scope on it. My 100 grains by volume is not exactly 100 though. I actually weight my charges and use 85 grains by weight which is a tad more than 100 grains by volume (my test gave me around 77gr by weight for 100 grains by volume of triple seven).
As someone said, too much powder can cause problems. I retrieve my shot sabots and with a ~120 grain load, I was blowing the back seal on the sabot. My shots were not consistent either. I have killed 3 deer with that load and had very clean kills with it. One I hit on the shoulder breaking the near leg, through the heart, and broke the far leg on the way out. HTH Keith
