Out to the range this a.m. Nice this morning, getting hot later today.
This was my first try with maxi balls out of my T/C. I have shot .440 round patched round balls for years.
My first shot.
Looks like it key holed. When i removed the paper targe I could see it did on the backer board.
Every shot after that flew straight and true.
I shot on paper then plastic jugs filled with water.
30 grains of 777
I also shot steel knock down targets and saw one of my maxi balls laying on the dirt berm.
I also shot my "kit gun". This pistol is rifled but w/o sights.
Here are my two guns.
The accuracy shooting the Patriot and Maxi balls was less then I have found with patched round balls. Maybe the barrel is too short to stabilize the maxi.
Anyway it was fun.
