This is the link to the image of the target I shot today. 50 yards---TC Omega--open sights, off rest.

I have written the order of the shots on the target pic. Shots 1-3 were with 110 grains Pyrodex and 300 grain Hornady XTPs. The first shot fell a little outside--which is common, I understand. These are my first group---2 1/2 inches and I was somewhat pleased. Shots 4-6 I decided to change it up and test 250 grain bullets. These were TC XTP bullets. Look at the difference!!!!Asmall %age ofthe group size--3/4 inch. I thought about leaving it at that but decided to do some more testing. I was gonna change the target(which I wish I did now), but was too lazy. I swabbed the barrel real well and then fired off a 300 again. I don't know what happened there....it must've had something to do with the clean barrel. It was way off of where the others were. Shot #8 seemed to fall closer to the original area. I then changed it up again and fired 250s for #'s 9 and 10. They were in the general area and I was OK with them.

What is your make of the whole shoot? What caused the outside shots? Does switching bullets cause any difference? I am pretty sure that the clean barrel caused a different impact point for some reason. Do you agree?

I don't what to say as to why I shot better with the 250s--which I tend to boycott. I just thought you all would find it very interesting. I was using a very solid rest and felt good with each shot. I am almost sure I didn't flinch any....[>:]

For the record, I am considering shots 1-3 and shots 4-6 the shot groups, since they were shot in a row. The others were screw offs and I wish I used a separate target.

Enjoy!
