,,,,,although I don't blame the barrel. I put mine on a Lyman Deerstalker and set up a box at 50 yds. The load is on the target without any adjustments but the grouping is something to be desired. I chalk that up to; (1). I had a poor rest and was basically hanging on to half of my shooting sticks because the snow is too deep to properly set up with them. (2). The saboted 250 gr'ers were very easy to load, even with a dirty barrel.

A few things I noticed. With 90 grs 3f Goex, the barrel shot very clean with little fouling. I also noticed quite a bit of powder stain (sprinkle??) about ten yds from the muzzle. Is this a sign of too much powder or is this burnt residue landing out there? Or maybe it was due to a loose fitting sabot?

Point of Aim is the bottom dot 95% covered with the front sight.



I look forward to getting out with my bench (6' folding table) latter on when the snow is gone. I'm confident this barrel and me for that mattercan do better. If it's anything like my Omega it will like the longer projectiles.


edit: right handed flintlock shot left handed.
