Darn weather
 
Just got a new can of 3f goex and today it poured all damn day. I got a chance to get out there and take 3 shots with the plainsman but my eyes wernt up to the bright light once the sun came out. Tears rolling down the cheeks:D I still managed to shoot a 4" group with my last shot pulling it out. The muggy weather i noticed slowed down my ignition quite a bit. I want to do at least 3 more this evening as im sure it'll be raining again tomorrow.

Always something to ruin a good shooting day!

I have 9 of Lanes Powder Tubes loaded up now and will see what i can do about that first shot being off like it is. I also weighed out my balls. (3) 175.6 grainers and (6) 175grainers. I want to be consistent on this outing. I also weighed my powder charges at 68.2 grains.

348gr Aerotip Powerbelt Over 70gr 3f Goex. This load is a keeper! This group measured 1 - 1/4" Outside to Outside.

Another great load but killer recoil.
