Range Report
I took my new Renegade stock and put my new 58cal barrel on it for a combination of a totally new gun. My 58cal barrel is a TC 1-48" twist. I was shooting a .570 Hornady roundball, .015 patch lubed with mink oil, and a dry wad. I started out at 90gr worked the load up to 120gr Goex FFG. I really like this load. I am getting accuracy out of it but I need practice. I think 120gr FFG will be my load. All my shots were within the kill zone of an elk. I am not sure If I like the sights or not. I think I like the sights on my old Renegade barrel better. It is easier to see and shoot the older ones for me. I really can not wait to go elk hunting. I am sure once I get more practice I will be shooting better. I need to be more consistant with how I line the beed up and everything. Last year I started out the same way with my 54cal but got better as I practiced. By the way, when I pull the trigger, the gun lets me know! I would still rather have an old Renegade stock but the new stock is fine. I found an older Renegade just like the one I had that my Grandpa's cousin might sell me. He got it when my Grandpa got his.
Cant wait to go elk hunting!
