I finally was able to get out to the range for the first time since August. Only had enough time to shoot my .58 caliber, T/C Hawken (caplock).
The target below was shot from 25 yards, seated. I used about 68 grains of FFG Goex, wonder wad, patch and a .570 hornady round ball.
I also shot 6 shots seated from 50 yards with similar results.
Finally, I shot 5 shots off hand at 25 yards and did okay -- a little shaking on my part.
The gun is dialed in -- I need a little work in holding a steadier hand!
Guess that will come with more range time, but, unfortunately, am lucky to get out to the range once a month, if that.
Can't think of a better way to spend a few hours on a beautiful fall morning!
