Default Sabot pains

Just getting ready to go out again today with the omega. This time with 80g pyro 9, rem kleanbore and the 300g xtp mag. My friggin hand hurts from having to gorilla the Xtp's down the bore.

Going out shooting alone this time, Not taking a second chance that little brat nephew of mine will be around to throw "sticks" And i will be looking for that blood covered stick. It felt like a darn rock so i will be investigating.

Good luck with the range session. And try to keep your head about you. I would have found that kid and he would not be able to sit for a week.. You're a good uncle.

Ron, i haven't tried any new kind of sabot yet, Chuck from MM is sending me an assortment of stuff to try out in the omega.

I took 2 3 shot groups @ 100 yards today and the best i could do was 9" center to center [:'(]

Not sure whats up with that kind of group so i will see whats in the surprise box that chuck sent.

Going to put the rifle away for now until i get some more 348 powerbelts in and call it good for the season.

CVA Big Bore should be in today or hopefully by tomorrow! Got to save powder for her.

Thanks Ron, I will let you know.

BTW, does that look like a wound cased by a 4inch long, 1" thick stick? [:@] I looked for a stick and couldnt find jack.


Dang, just noticed how long my hair is getting, time for a hair cut.
