New experience for me. I was helping my cousin and his son fine tune their inlines for an upcoming CO elk hunt. Both are shooting identical T/C .50 cal Encore rifles. QLAs have been removed and muzzles professionally re-crowned.
Load information:
No Excuses 460 gr cast
OxYoke felt wad all atop 777 powder (volume ranged from 80-90 grains)
Win 209 primers
Breech plug removed and bore cleaned every 3 shoots.
We experienced three different keyhole events on target from the 50-yard benchrest. Anyone have any ideas? Something is upsetting stability in this equation.
Coincidentally, same bullet from my T/C Triumph (albeit using 90 grs Blackhorn 209 powder) shoots great.
Thanks. Dave
