First off the bat, I wanted to shoot a few times with the new White 98 .451. I tried 75gr of both Swiss and Wano fffg blackpowder. I shot one group with each a 420gr Bullshop and a BB 460gr NEW.
I'm gonna go up 5gr and see what happens on my next range trip. I really wanted to chrono the difference between Wano and Swiss but my chronograph battery was dead and no spare. Overall, I have a little more shooting to do and I have some Pyrodex P if all else fails!
Next up shot by laminate 10ML-II. I have shot more stuff with this muzzleloader than any other. Just a real consistant rifle:
Just for fun I shot 46gr SR-4759 and a 250gr Ballistic Extreme. NOT so good. I knew it would shoot a 250gr BE/SST with 40gr N-110 so that was my next group. This gun always likes N-110.
Next up was the Traditions Pursuit II XLT. I moved the powder charge up from 100gr BH209 to 110gr. I shot the 275gr Ballistic Extreme in it for the first time and accuracy went downhill with the 250gr BE(100gr group was 0.82 inches). Finally I went to the 250gr SST....another great group.
I think I'll just stick with that!
The LAST two guns shot on the same target. My blue/synthetic 10ML-II likes 275-300gr bullets but just for fun I tried 250gr BE 46gr SR-4759. Pretty good... Final group in the lower right corner was shot with my Camo/Weathershield Triumph..110gr BH209/250gr Bonded Shockwave.
Best group of the day- Pursuit II XLT- 0.46
Runner up- Triumph- 0.64
Most fun to shoot- White 98
