yep the twins and the sangres got hit hard with that snow! I love it though. I need to check out north lake to see if its frozen over yet.

Good report MD
I like your range and yes,that rifle is a beauty.
Have you tried the CCI M 209?
How about the Fusion's?
I just picked up a pack of both to try.

cci 209m's wouldnt group with the RS, the Federals 209a's were horrible with primer soot. I havent found the fusions yet but i am interested in those.

Its me shaking on the bench. I allowed a few minute cool down in between shots, each shot loaded nicely without having to break out a hammer LOL.

Shot #2 was all on me. I need to make a new sand bag that will rest the entire forearm. My heart beat was going pretty good as thats what caused me to throw #2 shot.

Shots 1 & 3 measure 3/4" center/center.

348gr HP - Lead Powerbelt with 80gr Pyrodex RS.

md54, how are the cci ml primers compared to the win ml primers

winchester w209 muzzleloading primers are horrible with the crud ring. they are accurate and super clean though. I just cant get a second load down the bore. The cci's though are the icing on the cake! Picking up 2 more packs tomorrow.

thanks md54 we'll give them a try now that I can walk and get around again. We'll be spending a lot of time at the range finally.
