Default Northern Renegade Playtime Pt 2

Gorgeous day today and I was booked off. So I grabbed the Renegade for another shoot.
Consistency seems to be avoiding me. I'm thinking two things are plaguing me. One is maintaining the same sight picture from shot to shot and two, I think my bull is too big for 50 yd work.

So here is my first target. Same load as last time except I've added a Traditions Wonder Wad between the powder and patch. The T7 was shredding my patches without them.



After my first 3 shots I adjusted my sight picture not my sights. Then I fired 5 shots. Don't know what happened to #6 but overall not too bad.

So thinking about the bull being too large I flipped a target over and marked in a 2 inch box but only half coloured it. Results were less than stellar.



1 was just on top of the black, 2&3 were the bottom shots, 4 to the right and 5 bottom of the black. Just over a 3" group.

I'm a work in progress it seems.

Oh there was none to very light wind today and the smoke just hung there. Beautiful!!!

HA
