75 yards, .440 home cast PRB
 

75 yards today, 60 grains pyrodex p, .015 ox yoke patch lubed with crisco. I used the side of a tree branch to rest my rifle stock on. Not that great of a rest when there are 25-30MPH wind gusts lol.
#1 shot i pulled up on and was my fault.
#2 was good i was happy
#3 and #4 i was whistling dixie.
#5 i said a few swear words when the rifle hang fired. That was my fault, i didnt tip the rifle to the side when i pushed the load down.

Might go do some more shooting tomorrow if the wind is calm. But shots 3 and 4 show me that i have an accurate load.

With that wind I'd be happy to just hit the target! Looks like you might be on to something with that load.

Yeah hopefully it will be calmer out tomorrow. I need to build some shooting sticks so i can rest my rifle better. Its perfectly dead on out to 75 yards. Maybe a 100 yards but i darn sure wasnt going to try this today in this wind:D

When shooting patched roundball, any kind of group in a strong wind is good. People really need to remember wind. Especially when hunting. It looks like you have a good load there.
