kt-if you are having trouble loading hpxtp's check your bullet diameter. 451's load best, 452's with black hornaday sabot do okay but if like what happened to a friend of mine and the salesman sold him a box of 458's which did not load worth a darn. None load well after 3 or 4 shots though, run a wet patch and then a couple of dry ones for a quick barrel cleaning. You may be getting almost 1/2 inch holes with the power belts but skin movement could cause the entrance/exit holes to be covered part of the time. Larger exit sites mean easier trailing since there is more and easier blood loss. Just a thought.
