Skopia -

I'd say it was definitely the T7 building up. With Pyrodex, I encounter resistance to the damp patch about 3/4 of the way down the barrel. Once a bit of pressure is applied, it breaks free and all is well. With T7, I encountered almost no resistance to the wet patch, but when attempting to load the sabot after 10-15 shots, encountered significant resistance in the loading process. The verdict is definitely still out for me with T7. I like the crisp ignition, but it was too windy to judge accuracy. I'm guessing accuracy is good at least until I get to where the loading process meets substantial resistance. I'll learn more Sunday at the range.......
