Should be fun! I thought you might be shooting KW's Creedmoor today. Any trigger time is a good time.

I have a little question there on your reloads, the wrapped bullets , are they wrapped outside the shell or does the wrap go down into the shell and crimped there. The photos look like the paper is outside the brass. Maybe on a single shot it does not matter. Unfamiliar with this long range paper patched stuff, but would love to learn.

Recoil has gotten the best of me many times as well Bob. I have always said that Recoil is the #1 cause of poor shooting, and that MANY Shooters are to Proud to admit it. I struggle with it on a Regular Basis, and I’m NOT to proud to admit it

A wrapped bullet, the Hyde method.

 

[45-70]

have never heard it called that, thanks

 

[MSalyards]

From what I understand it was designed by Frank Hyde in the 1880s. The cupped base with the twisted tail is called the Hepburn method.
