Hey Chuck, I’m a fellow Omega fanatic. I fell in love with them when they were first released. I have had a few of them, I’m doing 2 Omega smokeless builds now with another planned. I’ve been shooting primarily fury bullets for almost 4 yrs now as well. So I think that I can help you here. Tim hit me up asking me to assist & I’d be glad to. Though, we do have a cpl more OMega fanatics & very experienced shooters in here as well, perhaps they’d join in & offer their words of wisdom here. I’ll LOL bc you’ll end up hearing all 3 of us say about exactly the same thing in the end. Thats a very good thing when ya think about it right.
I’m assuming that your Omega is a .50 1:28 from your bullet/sabot ya listed. The 290g Barnes TMZ?
Fury does not make a monolithic bullet. BUT, they do make several very nice other options in both bullet to bore & .45/50 sabot combos too.
I’ll start with the .50 bullet options first;
.50 Star Tip 2P in 285g or 320g. The cool thing about the 1:28 twist is that it will throw both bullet weights just fine.
He has a regular Star Tip MZ bullet that would serve you well too – BUT, you will need to know your exact bore dia & know what size to have them knurled ( if that is needed, you’ll need to know that too ).
There is another option ( better suited for a novice muzzleloader shooter )its called the .50 Universal fit bullet. They are in 285g & 320g. What makes them so special, is the poly gas check on the bottoom of them. It is a washer of sorts that lets the grooves cut into it & it seals the bore, regardless of the bore dia which they all float a little & when it comes to properly sizing bullets we are talking 4 decimal places. These bullets make negate having to worry about all of that. And you won’t need to buy a 145.00 adj sizing die & another 100.00 on a single stage press to be able to use them.
Now, lets talk about .45 bullet options;
He offers a .452 300g LT ( Lead Tip ) bullet that in a sabot would serve you very well.
He has a Star Tip MZ bullet in 250g, 275g, & 300g. All will serve you well in the right sabot for your gun.
He has a Star Tip BP ( for slower Black Powder rated velocity ) in a 250g bullet if you want to shoot light loads of BH 209 for recoil purposes, this is your bullet.
He has a Star Tip 2P in .452 which is one of his bullets that I shoot a lot of, but in a .45 muzzleloader. They are rated for BH 209 & smokeless velocities. He has those in 250g, 275g, 300g, 325g, all will shoot very well in the right sabot out of your gun.
I hope that that covers what you wanted to know. Plz feel free to ask in this thread or if you’d like, you can private message me for further questions.

Quote from chuckt56 on 07/30/2023, 19:37Thanks for the info right now I am using the newest barns MZ EZ (I think that is what they are called) and they feed better than the older mz’s and i am putting them inside an inch at 100yds. I really like them but am interested in the fury’s possibly for next year. If I decide to go that route that would be the bullets of choice. But I was not sure which star tips I could use with the blackhorn powder and sabot’s because they are listed as black powder and smokeless. And even though blackhorn is a blackpowder sub. but it is smokeless and it is more like shooting a modern rifle. And I have gone to weighing mine instead of the traditional volume method and i get way more consistent and tighter groups this way.

It sounds like you are interested in using the Star Tips from what you wrote. MZ & BP rated bullets are for slower black powder velocities or lighter BH 209 or smokeless charges. They will perform at slower velocities.
” Bullets of choice ” is not something that anyone could use to help you choose the right bullet to use bc no one knows what kind of game that you intend to use it on & at what velocity range.
If you are whitetail hunting, a 250g or 275g bullet will handle all of your needs, your effective hunting range with them will depend on your velocity.
If you are hunting Muleys or Elk or Black Bear then you want to use a heavier bullet like 300g – 325g bullets.
I’m not sure what else you are looking for here. Just ask & try to be as specific & detailed as you can to help us assist you better.
