Default Wolverine and NE conicals

Went out today with the .50 cal wolverine and No excuse .460 gr conicals. the .503 NE conicals load vary nice in this rifle, they seem to be a good fit.i am still going to slug the bore and order Bullshops at a later date. BS conicals are less expensive.i started out using 70 gr pyrodex after foulng the barrel with 3 caps, first 2 shots at 5 o clock.adjusted the peep sight up and took 3 more shots 3-4 o clock.adjusted the peep to raise POI,increased powder to .75 gr 3 shot(2 touching in red) 3rd below first 2 my error.if i would have did my part that should have been a 3 shot group all touching. rifle has a NECG peep sight mounted on it. took some getting used to. sorry the picture have to be opened, i don't know how to post pictures well. i am also going to give shot cards a try and see if they increase accuracy. overall i think this rifle and bullet combo has the potential to be extremely accurate and it was a lot of fun.Ray http://s133.photobucket.com/albums/q...ginMF1/target/
