I did some shooting today
The first picture is my Investarms / lyman trade rifle with a GM 45cal LRH barrel
shooting 225 PB AT over 80grn Pyrodex Select RS FFG
This was the first outing with this rifle and the new barrell.
I had to remove the nipple and put some powder in the bolster the first few times but after that with a firm slap on the side of the barrell it would fire

3 shot group,open sights,40 yards,lawn chair with shooting sticks

270 PB Platinum AT over 90 grn Pyrodex Select @ 75 yards

I have the scope sighted in for the SW 250 over three pyro pelletts from the last time I went out and forgot my loose powder.
I was shooting for groups and not bulleyes but my point of aim was at the bullseye with both rifles.
