Tom and Ray, i know I had not switched powders at that point... so I am sure it still was T7-3f.... But as you know from shooting with me I am a tapper - i am consistent about it - but I am a tapper... problem with those kids standing and watching and all of us talking I am thinking that I must have got more powder down the bore than I normally do, and with 3f being the fine granular powder that it i could have been possible I got an little more than normal in and it is also possible that I acheived a tighter seat than I normally do. Anyway - I need to pay more attention... even when people are talking to me....
