Default Heavy Lead in the .45 GM/TC Renegade (Range Session #4)
As planned, shot the 465 grain/.451 Lead Flat Nose bullets at 75, 100, and 125 yards today.

The load was 85 grains GOEX FFFg. Here are the results.

75 Yards



100 Yards


(DISCLAIMER: That low shot was shot #4, and I knew the crosshairs were a bit below the bull when I touched it off but couldn't stop the trigger squeeze.)

125 Yards



Happiness is a 2-3/8" five-shot group at 125 yards with slip fit heavy lead in a sidelock.

TRAJECTORY: 2" high at 75 yds. = 2" low at 100 yards = 4" low at 125 yards.

DO I DARE TRY 95 GRAINS?
