Finally got the rifle out yesterday.Didn't shoot too good but still had fun.I shot this target off hand at 50 yards.Tha circle is 5 1/2" and the top hole and bottum left holes inside the circle are 4 " apart just for reference on me needing to get out and shoot more.Used 50 grains of bp.

That little 6 bull is always a tough target at 50 yards.  Doesn't look like you did too bad.

I went to check out my Mountain Rifle with the thicker patching.  I shot a few off the bench to make sure I was still keeping them in there.  That is a tough rifle to shoot from the bench.  I restocked it, years ago, with a Leman stock and it has too much drop to shoot off the bench comfortably.  It has a tendency to beat you up.

Once that was done, I switched to the .32 to do some offhand at 25 and 50 yards.  Your target looks a lot better than mine did.  I did alright at 25 yards but kept shooting 2" high at 50 yards and was wobbling enough to spray them around a little.

Glad you had a good day.
