Fired my refreshed barrel today. Mr Hoyt took it to .452 with 1/56 twist. I haven’t got it optimized yet but I’m putting my shots in a 1 inch circle at 50 yards with a ghost ring rear sight. Right now .440 ball and .018 denim with 65 gr 3 f, 50/50 bees wax and olive oil. Im going to try a .445 and see what happens. A absolute blast to shoot. Fantastic work and a big thank you
