Ok thanks for the info. I just love getting real world reports/experiences rather than reading about what "should" work at various retail sites online ...

If the 245gr ball-ets are accurate at 100yds then they should be likewise ok just a bit farther! LOL I can get a short starter and ball-ets at the Sportsmans Warehouse in Federal Way - there's plenty of time to go there and shoot this weekend too. I wanted an excuse to go back down there anyways! HEHEHE. Thanks again jaybe!

Thanks so much for the homemade lube recipie ... I'm not at this level yet, but I've copied it and will start making my own when I make the jump to casting my own projectiles ...

Shooting as cheaply as possible while maintaining terminal performance, accuracy, and fun is where I can see myself headed in the ML world.
Also a quick update on my NE conicals order - Dave responded last night - he never received my initial order so ... I did what anyone here would do and doubled the order while I had the opportunity!
cheers,
