It is #11 cap, looking to convert to 209 when I return from here.

What is the use of bore butter then? When should it be used and not used? Some of the not used is here, and i guess I didnt clean it well enough between shots. THe stuff that cayugad gave me will help 110% I am sure. Guess since it is a good one I will work with it. Was using the 777 pellets, but the loose powder i will try. Cant remember what exactly I was using for bullets, they were sabots, so I am also open to suggestions there. I probably should have done more research but it was a gift and yes I am a man, and I figured with directions and the range I could figure it out! Now I am anxious to go at it again.

Should I use a scope or try open sights?
