My best 3 shot group

[Mallen]

While not a sub MOA, or MOA, my first and best group of 3 shooting full bore .45 bullets from a TC Encore.
265 gr. Fury bullet
Wool pad
T7 209 primer
100 gr. V T7 Powder
50 yrds.
Now some fine tuning.

Those are great hunting bullets & nice shooting. That will get the job done for you

...fine tuning. Isn't that like bribing a CO?

My buddy killed a doe this weekend using the 265gr Fury STB. We field dress on a gutting table so when you open the chest cavity everything sits there like a big bowl. Two big holes and her lungs were completely obliterated, not even a chunk of lung left. It looked like lung puree. That bullet is very accurate and without a doubt devastating!

First three shot group I'd be pretty happy with that.

 

[Hanshi]

That's an excellent group; now go-get-'em!

 

[BuffaloSoldier]

That ought to make meat!!

I should have added my friends Encore with those 265gr Fury STB's is sub moa with a best group of 3/4" when he does everything right. I think it might tighten up a little more.

That .45 MGM Black powder only barrel is a very good barrel for about $600 which includes a ramrod with jag, barrel band, scope rail, barrel standoffs and a Hankins tungsten bushing BP. Fluted was about $100 more.

When I got home I measured 10 charges, the way I was measuring at the range. Then I weighed each one and averaged them, 79.3 grains by weight. My plan is to head to the range with 79 through 82 in 1 grain increments and see what the gun likes. I won't be satisfied until I know I've gotten everything I can out of it.

That's the only way you'll really know what the gun/load really can do. Great attitude!
