Default did some shooting

Did some shooting with the deer creek .45 @ 100 yards today. 80 grains triple 7, 225 aerotip powerbelt and after 3 shots and a 1 1/2" group, i took the rifle back up to the house and cleaned it and adjusted the trigger just a hair before putting the rifle away until muzzleloading season starts. I have it sighted in dead on @ 100 and will be 4" low @ 150 yards. Im ready to go with this rifle.

Also took one shot with the cva mountain rifle .54 flintlock and was happy to see it dead center, But 7" low. I will take care of that tomorrow evening and try to get it dead on. That rifle too is shooting 80 grains triple 7. I put the first scratch on it yesterday when i took my 2 nephews and my rifle camping and it slid across a tree and made that ugly first scratch. I'll fit it once i have it sighted in. 4 or 5 shots with it tomorrow and it should be ready to go hunting with the deer creek. Hunting season is less than a month away, seems like time is draging.
