Default RE: Did some shooting with the 45

I couldnt resist, after i cleaned it i kept thinking about tomorrow and how i was going to shoot. Couldnt wait till morning. Got my possibles bag and 3 powerbelts, taped up my target, putit at my 50 yard marker and shot off my log seat and fence line. first 2 shots fired like a charm, 3ed shot i got a hang fire, it was actually a pretty good one too, i was able to watch the flame come out of the nipple. First 2 shots measured 7/8" from center to center. And as you can see i didnt move my sights over like i wanted too the other day. I figured it may have been the wind blowing the PRB off the other day but after shooting the powerbelts, its going to have to go over to the left. Its dead on too, you aim at the bottom of the black circle and thats exactly where it will hit. I may be ok at 100 yards and probably could get by with just upping my charge. And soooo little kick! thats the greatest part about this rifle. I have some 255 grain maxi hunters coming in, bought them off Lonewolf and should get them next week or early as saturday. i'll have 2 types of bullets to try out and see what groups best. So far this rifle was worth every "penny" i traded for it.

Im guessing at 100 yards it will be right at or a tad under 2" groups. what do you think?

Edit: Opps , guess pic would be nice to go along with.
