Had some fun
Went to the range today and got 2 more muzzys ready for the season. The .45 Encore and The .50 Knight Disc Extreme. The Encore load is 80 gr of Goex FFFg under a 200 gr Hornady XTP in a blue Harvester CR sabot. I tried Pyro P but that was no where near as good as the Goex. Shot 5 shots in about 2" and was pleased.
Next up was the Knight shooting 290 gr Barnes T-EZs but using a Harvester black CR sabot. Initial load was 100 gr of BH209 but not quite satisfied. Boosted it up to 110 gr and put 5 shots into 1.5" then made a couple scope adjustments and got it right on at 100 yards.
Both rifles were swabbed with a damp alcohol patch, both sides after each shot. Supposedly you can shoot BH209 without swabbing because it burns clean! I'm not so sure. The patches came out just as black as with the Goex.
I did notice that when seating a bullet in the Knight it felt like it was 'chattering" on the way down as if the bore was rough. When I got home I gave it a good lapping with J-B compound.
Phone was dead so sorry, no pics. But it was fun and spent about 3 hours there.
I have one more to get sighted in after installing a new scope. My CVA Accura. But I have to wait until my grandson is free with work and fall baseball because its going to be his to use.
