You need to shoot off hand standing, off a rest prone its hard to handle without padding of some sort. Ill bang 20 of these away one after the other, the steel butt plate leaves a nice imprint and bruise. I have a gell pad that goes on my shoulder, theyre great

now that would give you a seriously bad hair day

Actually, thinking about it, with that much powder more Brick@Mach1.4

When you are done with that Maca, how about one of these

I feel so inadequate only loading 420gn projectiles

I tried paper patching for my double rifle but with a full case ( 120 gr ) of todays black powder it would not achieve the velocity needed to regulate. Swiss BP was the best but still not up to the standard of the old day powder the Pom's used.
