RE: 21 inch bad start
Mossie,
I really didn't give it a fair chance today. Just too much damm snow around these parts. I do however agree that a bit less powder may be called for due to the spray on the snow out front of the muzzle. As for Swiss Powder, well it's a non-starter. You would never find it around here, hard enough to get any powder for that matter. To get Goex, T7 or Pyrodex it's a 2 hour drive each way.[:@]
I'm toying with the idea of duplexing a load with Goex / T7 maybe 20/50 or 30/50 and going with a 300 gr Nosler or 340 gr Dead Centers.
