Holy molly do i regret doing this today! My hands are burning due the cold and then moving into the hot house. Coughing my guts out in the process.
Last night i cleaned up the .50cal cva mountain stalker 1:32 twist sidelock and prepared 5 charges with 70gr pyrodex RS, cci #11 mag caps and my lubed wads.
Went out to 50 yards and took my first 2 shots, A big overlapping hole! I was shooting low and so i adjusted it up a bit " still needs more!" and took 2 more shots which were very close together but not as sweet as the first two. It was excellent though to see this 1:32 twist loves the 320gr REAL's. This will be some fun shooting once i back it out to 100 yards.
Did all of my shooting with light snow coming down and let me tell you, i about crapped my pants when i touched that 10oz trigger i set up last night
Awesome trigger but dang to light for cold weather shooting!
Will have to adjust the sights up and to the right but im happy as heck to see that another one of my rifles is doing great with this bullet.
Will get pics up here in a bit.

Naw, maybe 3 or 4 inches. Love it though! Bundle up warm and its a joy to be out in. My hands and ears froze however. Any time my ears get cold i get sick to my stomach and close to the verge of puking. No clue what causes that.

Give us another report next Aug when you're dripping wet with humidity.
