roundball,
Very nice patch, but what did that 50-yard target look like? What rifle were you shooting? Is 50 grains Goex 3F your accuracy load with round ball? What is your hunting load? I use 75 grains of Goex 2F and a patched ball in my .50s for hunting. In my .54s, I use 75 grains of 3F Goex and patched ball for hunting. With my own patch lube, I get about 15 shots before I need to wipe the bores. Nice photo of your cleaning patch. Adam
