Have you ever tried stiffer wads like the ones track of the wolf sells? You can get 1000 of them for around $12 shipped. They may help out with the groups or just something to experiment with.
Yes I have. I have them for my 50's, but I just picked up some Ox yoke here. I may try the others in the 45 to see if it matters.
The FTX were inside of an inch & I was very happy with them. I would think it would be a great deer bullet.
Well I see you made it out today and like always great shooting, specially with the SST'S 225 gr., a new for me to try. I really appreciated that . But you still have to try the 200 gr. so we are even. Great shooting.
