Good report MD
I like your range and yes,that rifle is a beauty.
Have you tried the CCI M 209?
How about the Fusion's?
I just picked up a pack of both to try.

cci 209m's wouldnt group with the RS, the Federals 209a's were horrible with primer soot. I havent found the fusions yet but i am interested in those.

Its me shaking on the bench. I allowed a few minute cool down in between shots, each shot loaded nicely without having to break out a hammer LOL.

Shot #2 was all on me. I need to make a new sand bag that will rest the entire forearm. My heart beat was going pretty good as thats what caused me to throw #2 shot.

Shots 1 & 3 measure 3/4" center/center.

348gr HP - Lead Powerbelt with 80gr Pyrodex RS.

winchester w209 muzzleloading primers are horrible with the crud ring. they are accurate and super clean though. I just cant get a second load down the bore. The cci's though are the icing on the cake! Picking up 2 more packs tomorrow.

thanks md54 we'll give them a try now that I can walk and get around again. We'll be spending a lot of time at the range finally.
