    After changing my rest height, did a little more shooting.

    All targets at 50 yards with .495 ball and I'm guessing .015 prelubed patch.

    5 shots at 60gr 2f Goex. The first on a clean bore, dead center top, four shots in lower group.

    3 at 70gr. 3/4" group surprised the heck of me.

    3 at 80gr. Should have quit while I was ahead

    Took 2 shots at 75gr. They were 1 1/2" spread so left it at that.

    That is some very good shooting. A deer better stay a long way out of your line of sight.

    I've planted pines in retired pasture land. Sandy soil that didn't produce much. Great for the deer
