Hi-Power Jack Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Both powders are good and I'd at least try MG 124's and 147's - see which is more accurate in your gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsg Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 If smoke is not an issue for you, lead and coated will likely shoot as well. I would try BBI 124 and 147 sample packs over the W231. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
