Really ... I have to admit it surprised me. I figured I would be right on top of the center bull. And I shot and saw the hit. Of course my first thought .... flinched? Reloaded, and I was swabbing between shots with isopropyl alcohol. Next shot, just a hair closer.

Also this is the first time I cleaned my removable barrel type rifle like my custom flintlocks. I plugged the vent and filled the barrel with dishwater. Then as that soaked I put the shooting stand away and then the shooting bench. When I came back in, dumped the water, pulled the tooth pick and it cleaned up really easy. I might do that more often with these flintlocks.
