Default hornady fpb and powerbelt

powerbelts were the first thing I started with my knight. not really to bad.
75grs
50yrds


next up was the new hornady fpb same charge and same yardage.



last target of the day once again at 50yrds. a very special target.


put 4 bullets in the same hole.

only 75gr good enough for hunting with this

Probably. What bullet were you using on the third target?

I could feel them cutting into the groves. took a little pressure to get them started. otherwise pretty easy.

Heck, I guess I could have read the notation on the top of the target. I guess my attention was focused on those four overlapping holes.
