50 yds getting 2", 5 shot groups. My eye sight and scope not good enough for me to shoot much farther than that. And i would rather be good at 50 than terrible at 100.

(2) triple-7 pellets and a 250gr shockwave in a super glide sabot(yellow)

Deer killing combo right there

:toast same load when I had mine. I never shot one passed 70 yards with it as I normally hunted out of my archery setups for ML season. I tried 3 pellets in mine and the accuracy suffered terribly.

I don't have a CVA Wolf but I'll offer my 2 cents anyhow. I have the CVA Mountain Stalker sidelock, the CVA Buckhorn in-line and the Traditions Panther sidelock (currently converting it to a wood stock vs the composite). All in .50cal.

I currently use a 295gr power belt & 2 Pyrodex 50gr pellets. Good load for me. I tried 3 pellets in my in-line but that's just too much for where I hunt. You get plenty of kill with the 100gr load. I've also shot the saboted TC Cheap Shots @ 240gr with good success but went to the power belts because it's heavier for more impact punch plus it's one less step to get you up and hunting.

I guess the load you shoot really depends on where you hunt and what you're hunting. I've really haven't investigated the science in load weights & powder type combos but just use what has worked for me. I haven't been dissapointed.
