RE: copper fouling?...........................Oh wait I have a brass range rod.
I am going to tell you guys something personal here at this point I was EXCITED about how this UM was shootin with the peep sights. high hopes lets say.

RE: copper fouling?...........................Oh wait I have a brass range rod.
And my 100 yrd group I was aiming at the big black circle above and was hitting that low. I think I can fine tune this baby ittle just take some time.

I dont know if you can see it very well but that is the williams peep'er and how high I have it and still shooting low.

RE: copper fouling?...........................Oh wait I have a brass range rod.
that is still some good shooting. All you need is to tune the sight. I am surprised the conicals dropped that much at 100 yards. What powder charge were you shooting?

70 gr. pyro P #11 caps not happy with caps I will use musket caps for hunting. the little tip on the cap would stick to the nipple and i had to use a pick after every shot for it to fire the next.

That is a nice setup... ya gotta be proud and I guarantee you it is a shooter.. Here's mine... mine is scoped because I hunt all year with it until ML season then I switch to a sidehammer, but this year I might have a Short Range season ans be able to use it then also.... No comments on the stock I have most all of them....  |

Is that stock an original "Jackson Pollock" ? How thick is that cheek ezz ?

ORIGINAL: savagescout I shot my white ultra mag today i had some bullshops great plains and white bullets in .460 and some shockwaves in 250gr. I am not a fan of loading the GP but they shot pretty well. The white bullets did not shoot well at all at 50 yards I was shooting about a 3" group. the bullshops shot the best about 1/2" group at 50 yrds. and 4" group at 100 yrds the shooters fault of course Im shooting with the peep sights. I could not get the rear sight high enough for elevation, so it was aguess where to hold at 100yrds. I found a front sight in my collection that will be low enough, so ill try that next time. I shot a couple weeks ago with bdeather and I was shooting a red dot scope and it was really hard to see, it was really sunny that day. the peep sight is more to my liking. I took some pics ill throw them on here tomorrow. the shock waves loaded very easy and shoot awful. I am new to this muzzle loading stuff and I took my 30/06 with a 3x9 and it felt like cheating a 100 yards, after shooting the first part of the day with peep sights. And your right about the "cheating" with a 30-06 and a 3-9 scope. The one shot is the great equalizer, that is all you get generally. Chap Gleason |

Who the heck is "Jackson Pollock?" The elk and deer don't look at the stock - so it dosen't to be good looking just functional... 1/4" to git me up on the scope better... You know I like that Williams peep that "savagescout" has on his... |

Pollock was an American abstract expressionist painter. He was famous for mixing colors in strange patterns. I was just teasing. I like the stock. I actually want to get one of them for myself.
I thought about one of those Ezz Pads for my Renegade. I like the looks of them. |
