BACO is still silent.
Last evening after the Big Hill Shoot I loaded 20 rnds with those 475gr greasers 2 grooves exposed, 9 1/2 primer, .030 walters wad and 76 grs Eynsford 2f.
With Kurt spotting, and Shadow 4 looking on and making noise with his 4065, shooting into the sun with a wind that required 9-15 minutes left windage,sitting off crosssticks, this is the results of those first 20 rounds, and 3 from the 40-65

I think this bullet will work for those so inclined to shoot greasers

Not quite…

According to Kurt, of The Grand Advisory Board,
Hickey's hits are as follows. the 9* outside the white, after 2min windage call by Kurt & obeyed by the minion, the tiny .40 put those two marks at 3* inside the white. (the pinwheel is Don's). Also the 6* in the white was put there by the itsy bitsy .40. Also according to the Grand Advisor the three shot cluster at the hanger, the one on the right is mine also. Then if you look down at the bottom of the photo the one on the left I beleive to be made by the .40 as Kurt couldn't see the hit because of the grass, (the target rang like a church bell though) That count is 6.

It just happened to be luck as I've got no shooting talent

As the Grand Advisor said " What I'm impressed with is this horizontial line of shots right here, from 9* to 3*". "The absense of any vertical"

Don is the one with the two shot shotgun group all over the target Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin

So Tongue on you & your big .44

So my initial "guess" was 20 min high, so what I got there and stayed there Tongue
Actually……. 397 grs.
