I was wondering about that today as far as hunting
Shouls I just count my first shot with a clean bore and sight to that shot or should i do a squib shot,fowl the bore and shoot,sight to the fouled bore
I think it's really just a matter of preference, and IF your gun is consistent with a clean bore. I hunt on a clean barrel with my Mustang because that's what I like and it shoots my preferred load to the same point of aim with every clean bore shot. Also, I know if I have to take a second shot on a one-shot fouled bore it will be within three inches of the clean bore point-of-aim. Now with my Zouave, I never know where that first clean bore shot will go. It might be a few inches above, below, or to the side of POA.
