Default RE: More GPR fun.

Ok im done for the day. Its hotter than a SOB out there.

i tried some different patches, .018 pillow ticking did good but i had to swab between shots to get them down. Just took 2 shots and they hit ok.

Put up a new target as the old one was getting hard to see.

Shot a 5 shot group with 90g goex, .015 TC patch " these were thick! and had to swab between shots" The 5 shot group was awesome.

Next up i took 3 shots with my 110g hunting load and it shot very good, even primed with 2f. Very good hunting accuracy.

Next i tried some other tc patches that were yellow, The ones before were white and thick. The yellows were .015 but thin?
Shot 2 90g loads and these were horrible! Although they measured just a little over an inch, they were 5"-6"to the left and high.

Loaded 110g with the same patch, same thing but they were on the right side.

Im settled with those white .015 tc patches until i order some more Ox-Yoke. I ran out today

One heck of a shooting day thats for sure.

Edit, Heres the pic of the target.
Have to swab the bore out and she'll be ready for a few more coats of gun stock wax.
Hmm, lets try that again now.
