Default RE: Getting BH209 to shoot

Shot the BH 209 today in my Encore .
Cleaning was aAMAZING , three wet patches and one dry, that's what i did between shots with pyrodex .I did not touch the barrel between shots and every shot loaded as easy as the first. No blow by , and the breech plug cleaned up spotless without solvent . I only shot at 50 yards . I definitely need a 1x scope . My bifoculs just don't cut it, I could see the target but not my sight or the sight and not the target . I only tried 95 grains of BH 209 and used the 300grain XTP , and Winchester primers .

The shot at 4 o'clock was all me , i jerked the trigger !!
