TC Omega muzzle velocity?

Does anyone have an idea what the muzzle velocity is for the omega in a .50 cal with a 150 grain bullet and 100 and 150 grains of triple seven pellets? Im trying to do some math before going to the range to save some time.

Thanks,

Pat

150 grn bullet? Why don't you use a 250 grn SST/Shockwave like the rest of us? Hodgdon has/had a M-L guide that listed speeds with various loads of their 777 & Pyrodex. I'll bet that info is somewhere on their website. It would be a little something to go on. I find speeds a lot of times are slower than those listed. I chrony'ed my loads last Fall & got a steady 1950 fps with 120 grns of B209 & a 250 grn SST out of a 26" Knight.

have you checked TC's website? I thought that they had some load data on there. Since 150gr powder and 250gr Shockwave is popular I would think that they would have it.

Also I know that my TC Triumph manual had some load data in it too.
