Be hard to beat that Omega.

Have you thought about any of the aftermarket upgraded parts?

What are some of the things you don't like about your Omega?

I like the hammer less design of the traditions, my omega loses accuracy w loads over 100gr, like a hand removable breech plug.

10-4.

Any particular reason you want loads of over 100 grains?

I haven't shot over 100 grains but from a lot of what I read on the net it's not at all uncommon for groups to open up when loading over 100 grains. Not sure if the high pressure sabots would cure this or not.

I don't know if there is a hand removable breech plug for the Omega.

Let me know if that Omega becomes available. Could be interested.
