Default it rained on me still got some shots off

started out, foggy. ran around to and got some stuff done. started to clear off. I started out on the 45min drive to the range. started to foggier, got to the range, nice and clear with the sun peeking out.

no start out target explain a little later in this post.
all targets at 50yrds
shoots all over the place, (tracing paper) paper patched lee improved 45cal minnie well sorted range lead dropping at 315gr avg. 70grs of t7 2f cci 209m. also shot the 420gr bullet paper patched with app 2f no shocker, I have not been able to get them to do anything with anytype of powder.

same charge and primer, lee improved minnie paper patched. 10shots #1

went to t7 3f 5 shots#2

same charge as # 2 changed the primer to t7 five shot group, could not find the 3rd shot went the flyer out side of the gourp was shot two #3

I did try at 100yrds but as soon as my first shot went of the sky opened up. target is soaked and ripped as I took it off the backing. I also shot my target stand twice in this session. once in one of the arms second in the base see if i can come up with some kind of fix for it

in my first range session with paper patched bullets i used the t7 2f cci 209m hand had some good results but the paper i was using was reg. tape. started me wondering if deference in the make up paper changes the poa that much.

Target #3 looks pretty good Corey. I didn't completely follow your shot sequence. How many shots was that on Target 3, and what was the load?
