per range report
I am going to start this thread now. I got a lot to cover and have earns both before and after.
I am going to the range tomorrow or today, hoping to be out there before 12pm. about 33 loads. 5 sets of 3 to work up a saber tooth load, I already tested to see how the skirt fit in my new englander, tight, 3 sets of 3 for patched ball, the 50/50 patch store bought home lube, then with corn meal buffer then one with the 50/50 ticking patch. 3 sets of 3 all lead conical test 3 250 lee REAL, 3 320 lee REAL, and hornady 385gr GP.
sheesh that is a lot of lead. [&:]
it could alway change when I get there.
wish I had some 457 405 sabot ready I only have one done. temp dropped like a rock while I was casting

RE: per range report
Well,that's a fair bit of shooting Corey. But it's good to have a shooting plan like that. I have a bunch of Lane's powder tubes and prepare my powder charges in advance and put them in little ziplock "snack" bags along with the bullets I plan to shoot with them. Even mark my targets in advance with the bullet and load info. Saves a lot of time at the range and keeps me organized.

RE: per range report
should of stayed home. and played hunting games. lol
could not get nothing to group. I was shooting 5 inch high and when I aimed lower missed all together. only thing I got to shot good where the 385gr great plains. went to pack up just happen to look at the rear site and it was loose as hell [:@]
sounds like the problems I had with my knight before I got it shooting damn good
