Got out today to shoot the new 45 cal.
Mounted a 2.5-10x40 Bushnell Elite 4200 using Durasight mounts.

After getting her on paper I shot these two 5 shot groups with two different bullets & charges. This was at 50 yds only. Then it started to snow heavy and they closed the range. The 180gr XTPs which came with a tan sabot loaded with extreme difficulty from a clean barrel. It only got marginally better with a fouled bore. The Barnes loaded slightly easier. I have no Harvesters or MMPs in 45 cal yet.

Next time out I will try at 100 yds. and experiment more.

Oh yeah...using a trigger pull gauge I got an average of 2lbs. 5oz after 10 pulls. This trigger is sweet.
