Got a chance to go to the range again with the White UltraMag today. I thought I would just try some different bullets and powder loads to see what might work. All shooting was done at 50 yards using 777 2F loose powder and a CCI musket cap. First I shot some old 300 XTP's that I've had for a while. They loaded nicely with reasonable tightness but not real tight. I started with 90gr at a target that was already on the range and while I hit it it was not worth taking a picture of (maybe 4"). Next I set up my box target and shot 3 XTP's using 100gr and 3 more with 110gr, they measured 2" and 1.5" respectively(center high). Next I tried some 320 Maxi's that I got on closeout at Walmart. They loaded as easy as the Bull Shops I shot last time out, a bit loose for my taste. I shot 3 with 90grand 3 with 100gr, they measured 2.25" and 1.75" respectively(center low and lower left). I then tried a card under the bullet with 90gr to see if it would help, that group measured 2.625"(upper left), no real help. I then pulled out some 385 Buffalo bullets and tried 3 with 90gr and 3 with 100gr, they measured 1.625" and 2.25" respectively(upper and lower right). As you can see a few of the loads had bullets touching or almost touching. Some of the group size is due to my being rusty at best with open sights but all of them would be good enough to hunt with out to maybe 100 yards or so.



Sorry about the focus, I'm not sure wat was going on with the camera. Conditions today were nice with 36 degree temps and a very light breeze with mostly cloudy skys. Elevation at the range is right at 8000 feet and it was snowing on Pikes peak across the valley from the range.
