Continuing development with the .44-77.

[Distant Thunder]

I appreciate the off of the molds, but I'm busy all this week and won't have time to do any casting. I cast all the bullets I'll need for Lodi this past week and will be loading the week before Lodi.

Things all piled into August on me and I'm short on time with too much to do. I'll have to go with what I've got and lick my wounds and think about next year and what I will do different. Lodi will be my last match for this year and my fall will be very busy. Next year should be better for shooting for me.

If I can get my .44-77 shooting decent out to 600 and test the new .45 caliber bullet at 1000 yards it won't have been a bad year for me. I can build on that for next year.

Mid range matches are not the best for trying different things out. With only 4 sighters and not much time to screw with things it's basically pick a bullet, lay down and shoot. Then assess the results and try something else on the next relay and repeat.
