I know I do not have to every time but when shooting for accuracy I always do as I want the bore in the same condition each shot - what I call 'semi fouled'. If you did with the O DISC but didn't with the Mountaineer that could have some bearing - but still the target group you presented would sure have done the job in a hunting situation.


Most of would say 'good shooting' with a hunting bullet and load!!!


Still think you should have had that shoot off with Frontier Gander when he tought his rifle would out shoot everyone's!
