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 some good shooting at 100 yards. Like said, aim at one of the lower corner black squares and see how much higher it is shooting. Were you swabbing between shots? Nice shooting again.
Thanks for the kind words. Now that I know the rifle will shoot where its aimed, I need to get off the bench and start practicing. Most of my hunting will be from a climber or ladder stand. In all cases I will have a shooting rail. I assume the best practice would be in a sitting position?
