    40-65 WCF and Alliant 10x

    Target was rather impromptu. This weekend is the tail of the tape. It's down to a 1 grain difference in powder drop and one additional fiber disc filler.

    40-65 WCF and Alliant 10x

    Same load at 100 yds. Opened to 3" needed a bullseye with better contrast for open sights.

    Spoke with ruger/marlin earlier this year. The fella said he would push it up the chain on the 375 wcf. I told him we don't need any more new marketing cartridges.

    Lost a winchester 94 big bore on Gunbroker last week over $50.00. It wasn't spotless I went to grand even and stopped. The dam thing was only worth $850 to $900.00.
