Went out today to get my upper fined tuned for VA deer rifle season which starts tomorrow.. First 3 shots were about a 2 to 3" group, but the next three (pic posted) I held it tighter and got a much bigger group

3 shots @ 75 yds, off a sandbag, using the 250gr Hornady FTX ammo..

Great group and good shooting

Did you do this with iron sights or optics :geek:

Very good point.. I WISH my eyes were that good.. I have a 3-9 Nikon Omega Muzzleloader scope on it..

I do have some BUIS that I need to sight in though... I cant install the rear sight while the scope is mounted though

I have read that the muzzleloader scopes work great on the 450 because of the similar trajectory. I was thinking of a 1x4 Leupold, but I read some where that Leupold makes a muzzleloader scope that is made for a 45 cal. bullet around 2100 fps w/ a special reticle for longer shots.

Looks like good shooting!! now you have no excuse for the big one to get away!!

yep, looks like dead deer for sure!

our season opens Sunday, I'm in a shotgun/handgun area thou.

Maybe next year a 450B in a Encore would suffice.
