Default 2 down, 1 to go!

While it rained, it was fairly dry under the roof for a while. We got the Strikerfire dialed in out to 200 and I got the Accura v2 dialed in as well.

I got the 58cal Hawken very close to 100 yards but the dark sky and rain really prevented me from REALLY dialing it in. Im going back to the Whittington Center tomorrow with Robert, the young guy I am taking muzzle loading on his first hunt Sept 27th. He'll do his best to fine tune the Wolf I am loaning to him.

The .58 was doing extremely well with the JSG Super Powder set at 90 grains volume with a .015" patch and .570" round ball at 100 yards. More dialing in with her tomorrow if its a nice day. No swabbing was needed either.

My heart tells me to go with the .58 this season but my testing side wants to use the Accura with a special bullet that needs testing.
