I got bored waiting for the race to start. so I went out and shot about 12 times. I took the new englander out and did another offhand sessions. I am getting the feel for this rifle. only problem. I found 4 patches and found holes in the center of the patches. they where a 50% bore butter 50% crisco, .015thinkness, 80gr pyrodex rs. what could it be doing that?



I shot the target upside down. 1-4 where prb with the patch lubed with bore butter. 1 was on a clean barrel 4 was all my doing. the 2 holes in the bottem of the box was a round ball and 214gr swc .429 homecast. all offhand at 30yrds.
