First time using Blackhorn
 
Gotta say I like it. As I'm extremely slow in loading... part because I'm slow, part because I was teaching my daughter so, no swabbing between shots helped quicken the pace. It liked the Winchester 209 primers I had.... did not like the Fusions. Primer fired... second delay... charge ignited. Kinda throws off your point of aim.
My daughter didn't like the way the recoil looked, so she passed. :s7:
Maybe next time.
85 gr ... 250 gr SST with a black Harvester sabot. The Sidekick shot well at both 25 and 50 yards with a red dot 1x. Unfortunately, I didn't wait for the cease-fire to collect the target.

switch to hotter primers like the CCI 209 Magnum. The W209 primers are more of a mild primer IMO.

My TC ProHunter likes the Win 209's with BH 209.
