Default Tenn Mtn Rifle Goex load

Had some trouble with Goex 2f the last time out. Horrible fouling with 90gr goex and it would just start throwing them all over the place.

Today i changed 2 things, lowered my charge to 80gr goex 2f, lubed wad, 250gr REAL conicals @ 100 yards. And I started using a little extra lube around the sides of the wads. Adding that extra lube helps greatly and i felt it take "bite" in the rifling as i pushed the wad down on top of the powder before loading the conical.

3 shot group @ 100 yards with the new sights. Bulls eye is 3" Diameter. Next time i will go back to 90gr and see how she does with those extra lubed wads.
