This is a big day for me! My wife went w/me as i traded some guns including a Ruger 44 mag redhawk she bought me when we first got married (I'm bragging) and was able to get a .50 / SS TH Pro Encore black composite, Burris low rings also Nikon Omega BDC 3x9 black matte scope. Anyhow based on what I read in these forums I'm going to start w/ 110 gr T7 loose, T7 209 primer and TC 250 grain SW super glide. I plan on using the alchohol and windex wet patch then dry patch swab method both sides I read here fron one of you regulars. I just learn so much reading this it gets confusing and each person has twist to what works (not to say your twisted). Ohio gun opens Monday so I hope i can have this shot up and ready otherwise I'm taking the Shotgun. But when you can get a rig like this, better late than never! Thanks guys, keep the goosd info coming!

Hit it good!
Bore sited at 6 inches low, 4 inches right. The Nikon has 1/4" adjustments so my second shot clipped a 3 inch black circle my 3rd bulled!~ Yesssss I am officially cranked up. 8 and 9 shot cut each other so that was better. I could not get time on the 100 yard range so I left it at 3 inches high at 50 yards? I will take my range finder and see how it does this afternoon at 100 and BEFORE I hunt w/it. I will be sluggung this a.m. They are calling for rain-rain and then more rain here in Ohio for the 1st day so I will get my jon boat out and go sit in the woods. Just wanted to give you all an update before I leave. Hunt Safe!
