Default interesting mistake at the range a week ago

When I was running an test on my win apex. I made the mistake and grabbed the wrong bullets. did not realized it until after 3rd shot.

I was planning on shooting
5 260gr 451 home cast paper patched with 100grs of app 3f

ended up shooting
1 260gr 251 home cast paper patched and 4 45cal 250grs lee real paper patched.

the paper patched lee reals was just one of those playing around type deals. I was not going to shoot them. I was going to remelt them back down.

when I was done shooting. I had an 3 to 4in group at 50yrds at the same placement but 4in high of my dirty bore lee improved minnie load I hunting with. got me thinking, this is an load I can work with later on.
