Well, not bad for the first load with this powder. first shot was right where it should be and the other 2 dropped down and drifted a little but im not sure if thats the powders fault or the winds. Have around 15mph wind so it wasnt a very steady hold. Recoil was very little, smoked more than pyrodex but wasnt bad. Blowback wasnt as dirty as pyrodex. Zero crud ring and each shot loaded easily and never felt anything grabbing or tightening while i pushed the bullet down.Primers also pretty much fell out of the plug when i popped the bolt back. Really like this stuff so far. I think my limit will be 100 grains of T7 with this bullet. Barrel doesnt even smell, smells more like a firecracker fuse. Once i get those bullshop bullets in i can shoot more and experiment with loads. Overall, it was a great first load, Just need to toy with it and try different loads and add a wad and see if it will tighten it up.
Now time to clean it and see how that goes.
