Default Apex target pics

Got those pictures of the few targets i shot with the .45 Apex.

Heres the first one with the 240g maxi balls, with and without the wad. Huge difference.


3 shots with the 95g AT Powerbelts, 80g P-S, With these, i have to swab between shots to keep them tight or else they do this.


The hole that is circled are Two, 275grain Powerbelt HP's with 80g P-S. These shoot awesome and i plan on using those to hunt with as they give the best accuracy.

Probably will take the Apex out again this evening with the 385g paper patched conicals.

All shots were at 71 yards. Have to give the maxis a try at 100 yards again.

Nice gander. Amazing difference with the wads. What kind of wads were you using, card or felt?
