Default win apex and paper patched bullets (lots of pics)

I am very happy with the results. how i have it set up. they load very easy. if I do my part they shoot very well. basically, I forgot i switched the scope mounts out. duh

all shots at 50yrds, 75grs triple 2 10 shots with 3f.

lee improved minnie lubed with 40/crisco 40 liquid wonder lube 10 beeswax, wad, paper patched no lube

wasted 10 paper patched bullets due to an mistake on my part.

side by side comparison of the paper patched and lubed bullets


wads


finally set down and sited it in with 275gr hp powerbelts 75grs of t7 2f


pb 275gr with 75grs t7 3f (no more of those pb's)


lee improved mines with wads same charge


some bullets pulled from the dirt backstop

You have just seen the tip of the ice berg. It will start getting MUCH better. Now you can see why I like the paper patching so much. On your minies. I have found here lately that my rifle like the paper patched minie's with NO over powder wad. Man doesn't it feel good to start to see your work come together? Here is a picture of my AH HA moment. Good job. Ron
