I think the Parker .408. 300 gr sabotless have potential.
I didn’t get a chance to try the lead today but the Parker’s did pretty good for first time out . I didn’t vary powder charge at all . I used a 45 cal wool wad thinking a little oversized might help seal better . Next time out I might a different powder charge but I was pleased at the start
I did not clean between shots and I could tell after shot 5
The two groups are 5 shots . Shots 1 and two on cold clean barrel created one group. Shot 3,4 and 5 created a second group . Not sure if it was caused by my hold or by the dirty barrel . I might try cleaning each shot next time and see

Good job with the groups.

Thanks. Best part : don’t feel any recoil with this gun and load

Ya` know Sharpsshooter, you could probably tighten up those groups if you didn't flinch so much.

Very true but when my old timers disease acts up it is difficult to control
