Default Conical for the Encore .45 and Omega??

Took out the .45 Encore and shot some of the 330 grain Lee Improved mini - sized to .451 and lubed heavy with my concoction.

Lee mold -45 Cal.Oversize .454-298M 90469

Those are bullets that were sent me by a friend in Hawaii.

Using my usual 75 grain spout (not quite full) of FFF grade 777, got on target in one shot at 50 yards, dropped back to 100, shot two rounds, made an adjustment, then fired three. Two in the same hole and the third was off high and right about 2.5" but I knew the shot wasn't quite right and the wind was blowing a bit more for that shot. Think I've found a winner in a conical for the Encore. Plenty of punch and good accuracy.
