Finally...
Took the CVA Kod Mag out and, with the new to me Redfield Illuminator scope on(thanks Wild Bill!), set in to sightin' in. I was chasing it all over paper for a few shots, then realized that it needed to catch up. Once I shot for group, it did ok. I think I'm good out to 100 now. Went back to Pyrodex from that Blackhorn stuff, and never had a hang/misfire this session. I feel a lot better about hitting the woods with it now. The lower right shots were after I had shot 5 times on another paper, then switched to a new sheet. First one far right and low, then a slight adj that didn't take like I wanted, then I decided to just shoot for group. That's when the adj took I reckon. 3 in the black, as good as I can do I reckon.

Re: Finally...
Just remember MUP hot barrels and sabots don't mix. If you shoot much a cooling rod and a bag of ice will really help.

Re: Finally...
Those last three shots were with a warm barrel Bill. I let it cool down somewhat, but it was still not cold. I'm hoping that a first shot will be good to go. I may go out a day or so before season opens and fire one off, b/c I need to foul the barrel anyway on this gun.
