Holy molly do i regret doing this today! My hands are burning due the
cold and then moving into the hot house. Coughing my guts out in the
process.
Last night i cleaned up the .50cal cva mountain stalker 1:32 twist
sidelock and prepared 5 charges with 70gr pyrodex RS, cci #11 mag caps
and my lubed wads.
Went out to 50 yards and took my first 2 shots, A big overlapping hole!
I was shooting low and so i adjusted it up a bit " still needs more!"
and took 2 more shots which were very close together but not as sweet as
the first two. It was excellent though to see this 1:32 twist loves
the 320gr REAL's. This will be some fun shooting once i back it out to
100 yards.
Did all of my shooting with light snow coming down and let me tell you, i
about crapped my pants when i touched that 10oz trigger i set up last
night Awesome trigger but dang to light for cold weather shooting!
Will have to adjust the sights up and to the right but im happy as heck
to see that another one of my rifles is doing great with this bullet.
