Default Omega's best group!

Just shot this about 10 minutes ago, Zero swabbing! 90* day, no wind.

80gr Pyrodex RS, Remington Kleanbore, 405gr Powerbelt Aerotip. A couple days ago i got only a 2" group with 777 primers. Pretty amazing how much a different primer can do!

100yrds 3 shot group.

I think you have a problem there - see, all the shots aren't in the same hole. You'll need to sell that junky rifle to me at a very decent price and find yourself one that can keep all the shots in the same hole. Seriously though, that is some pretty amazing shooting. Are you allowed to use the Omega for muzzleloader season in CO, or is it of a "illegal" design?

During rifle season i can use it as it is, But during muzzle loader season, i'd have to remove the scope. Its been a pretty reliable rifle with powerbelts, just primer picky. I can live with that.

Nice shooting FG. But you're pressing your luck letting money lay around in this place. Someone might snatch it up.

I don't think those Colorado Elk have a chance against that!
