Shooting a lot less then the mile

[Willy]

I got to shoot in the backyard again this past Saturday, 80 yards. I am trying to find a comfortable and stable sitting position. My belly makes that pretty difficult so I've been sitting on a short stool. Of course this is not a very stable position without one of my elbows resting on my knees so I'll have to experiment with the stool height, making it just high enough for comfort but low enough to allow another point to rest my elbow on.

I made a bunch of changes for this outing...probably shouldn't have. I used my own cast un-weighed bullets (not sorted), changed to Win LRP vs the Win LPP I was using, otherwise it's the same 70gr 2f KIK, Lyman 457132, .026 card wad. It took me a number of shots to settle down and get comfortable but then they seemed to cluster just to the left of center. The far left flier was the fouling shot.

I've since cast more bullets and sorted them into three weight groups. I will also be trying out some veggie wads instead of my current card wad.
