Fire forming load?

RE: Fire forming load?
Out with the C. Sharps again and fire form loads were the same with bullets sorted by weight held to +or- 1 grain. Used 68 grains of OE 1.5. Shot flatter than the GOEX 2 fg. 1'st shot clipped the black at 6:30. Adjusted up and the 2'nd into the 9 ring at 6. Up a bit more and shot the remaining 18 rounds. 13 mph wind from the NW down the slot between the 100 and 200 yard frames. Mirage running from left to right and then a quick switch to right to left. Could push the impact on target about 1.5 minutes. Lost it on shots number 19 and 20 and popped them into the 8 ring, inside 8 @ 12 and middle 8 at 12:30. Not a bad target really. Fire formed brass is just about perfect. A run through the Lyman neck size die and it holds a .444 BACO slick patched with 2 thousands 100% rag bond paper beautifully. Snug enough to fit well and allow handling without the bullet separating.
