[QUOTE="Elite Muzzleloader, post: 931992, member: 30759"] Finally was able to take my McRem out today after I had sent it off to Panhandle. Was able to check zero and make a couple adjustments here is what I ended up with. McRem 45 Nikon Prostaff 5 3.5-14x40 XR 12/58 4759/4198 275 Parker BE Win209 Primer Wool Wad Temp 56 Degrees [b]105 Yards[/b] [URL=http://s159.photobucket.com/user/cdpurcell/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20140315_125611703_HDR_zps06df457b.jpg.html][IMG]http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/cdpurcell/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20140315_125611703_HDR_zps06df457b.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [b]400 Yards (398 Lazered)[/b] [URL=http://s159.photobucket.com/user/cdpurcell/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20140315_134306754_HDR_zps07b6e534.jpg.html][IMG]http://i159.photobucket.com/albums/t133/cdpurcell/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20140315_134306754_HDR_zps07b6e534.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I shot several FTX also today but they were the ones I was trying to index and I didn't like what I saw. I don't believe running them threw the barrel drop and then indexing them will work. If I had a full form die I believe it would be different. Either way this is why I am not posting those results because I think they are flawed. I am still learning my scope and adjustments for long range shooting.

Also wasn't able to get velocities because I forgot my tripod for the chronograph another key factor in todays shooting. I need to make a check sheet and also bring a notepad to take better notes. What are some of the procedures one does when working up a load and taking notes? Thanks RR [/QUOTE]
