Default RE: Sighting in for Hunting?

Well there is lots of good info in the posts from you guys. My final thoughts after a few years of hunting with the loader. Ihave been sighting in my gun as I would with a rifle by shooting 3 shots then cleaning. Over the past 3 years I have been shooting 777 and remington clean shot primers in my Omega. The 3 shot groups are together with no flyers. Which I consider the most imortant part of all this.I do see slight change starting at 4 but nothing to be alarmed at.Still no flyers but a wider group. Where I do see a significant change is from 8 shot and up. Obviously we are not going to shoot that many times at an animal. I am sighting in at ranges from 50 to 125 yards. I average 100-125 shots on the range prior to the season. So for me it is no swap after every shot at practice as I would duringhunting season. I alsoclean my gun after every shooting session and I start the next day of hunting with a fresh load.I love to seee the sparks fly at dusk when ending the day in the woods.Thanks for all the great discussion.
