Went to the Ft. Sill private weapons range this morning to try out the 280 grain Harvester hard cast bullets. This range faces north. There was wind out of the northeast at about 10 mph gusting to about 18 mph. i fired between wind gusts.

Gun: Old CVA Stag Horn 1:32"
Powder: 100 grains of JSG
Primer: Winchester shotgun
Bullet; Harvester 280 grain .44 hard cast in crush rib sabot.

Man, those things are hard to load. Fired five rounds at the 50 meter target without swabbing the bore. Four bullets went into the 3" bull, strung vertically. The fifth bullet hit 1/2 inch above the bull.

That CVA gun does something that is very neat. It puts the 240 grain .430 XTP, the 300 grain .430 XTP and these 280 grain Harvester hard cast bullets to pretty much the same point of aim. The vertical stringing experienced today may be due to the fact that my jug of JSG was opened two years ago.

Looks like minute of pig to me.
