The patches will feel almost dry and be pleasant to handle. The .50 GP seems to like them a tiny bit wetter than my .54. The .58 Renegade doesn't seem to care if they are on the dry side, or more wet.
Thanks for that Semi.

This is about the best you're going to do on a new one on-line.

I got the sight at Optics Planet.

That is some great shooting Semi! (missed this thread when you first posted it)
You are ready for sure My bro-in-law has the same sight on his deerstalker, and his groups tightened up big time just like yours when he put it on. Sweet setup - good luck with it, but I hope you don't make the dragon jealous...it could get ugly around there. LOL
