Default RE: Ok....I am ready

ORIGINAL: oldrookie

Shot the loose powder for the first time this morning. The group at the top is actually a 5 shot group...2 inside the other. Tweaked the scope and the group to the right is actually another 5 shots. I am please for the first time out with the loose stuff. This was 90g of 777 2F pushing a 300g hornady xtp at 100 yards.

Next time out I am going to give the 250g a try. Will they be off the paper high?
That is pretty good shooting for an >>old<< rookie, your going to have to change your name after you get some experience with loose powder! Good luck dial-in the 250. They will be high, just aim at the bottom of the target not dead on bull's eye. Chap
