Default to dump or not to dump

I have had a load in my ML for about a week and half. I was planning on going to the range saturday and getting out the fun way (calling for rain). I want to check a load to see how it feels going down the barrel. I am going to try to get to the range on monday because late ML starts next saturday. should I go on and push it out?


I hate cleaning after pushing loads out [:@][:@][:@]

Yep, push it out. Dont get lazy

I just spent close to Two hours cleaning my sidelock today. Sure i could have done it a lot quicker, But i like to look things over and make sure its clean.

broke down and did it, I wanted to push a sabot/bullet combo (mmp hph24 black and a 45 cal. great plains) thou to see if I would have any problems anyway. it was something I have talked about twice already.

Not quite sure how that would fire. Interesting concept though. Ever thought about just buying .50cal great plain conicals and shooting those? They load a lot easier than a sabot.

yeah, those and tc's conical.

I am going to fire 5 of them just for the hell of it, got them for $5. if they group, great, if they don't just part of the test.
