Getting ready for the season

Well deer season is right around the corner here.
Had the day off yesterday and thought I would check a couple rifles.
The 44 BBB isn't scoped, and I know it can do better with this load. But not to bad.
Now the 41 BBS is scoped, I was shooting at the cross at the bottom.
All shots were high but what a group, so I made a little adjustment and got on the cross. I did raise it two clicks cause it was a little low.
But they should be ready for the weekend.

Thanks nothing as of yet, been a lot of shooting all around. Only thing I'm seeing is squirrels.
But it's still early.

You're the second person to mention that.
Head shots for sure.

Tom, I have a coulpe loads but they don't look like that just yet.
Those are some Corbon factory loads, box has 250grHC.
I bought those years ago when I first got my Black Hawk.
Looks like I shot 5 and that was it, I found them the other day looking for something else.
I did pick up a new mold this past summer that I haven't tried yet. It's a 268 gr. so that will be my goal.
Hopefully get started on it around the first of the year.
I have some 280 gr that came from BTB that need some attention also.
