    Day at the Range

    Tried my first PP bullets today. 60grs Goex Ctg, .030 compression, Poly wad .060, Wolf LP primers.
    I nec=ver had the Fecker scope on this particular Rifle, so I used GG bullets for sight in and one hit low and blew mud all over the paper I use for targets, so I didn't record the first PP shots.
    First shots were greased with BW/NFO/Lan my standsrd BP lube, The patch pictures that look like they are almost whole were greased and caused fliers.
    I wiped between shots with Water/10% WSO, two patches, I tried Wet patch/Dry patch and WP/WP, The WP/WP worked best for me with no lube on the bullet, this also works best for me shooting GG bullets.
    Hope the pictures can be followed, one is all the patches I picked up within 10 ft of the muzzle, the ones that look like they are whole were greased and caused the group to open up.
