Ox-Yoke Wonderlube 1000+

Shot round 7 of the Kent Black Powder League using the normal setup with 0.015 patches lubed with "Ox-Yoke Wonderlube 1000+". Very pleased to shoot an 89.1 ex 100.

Round 7

As a PB, managed to get 4 scoring shots in the 10 ring. Called both of the high flyers. As you can see, the group though was fairly good, but I did notice some loading difficulties.

On at least three of the shots, the loading with the long starter showed that the ball was not seating fully down the barrel. It was only a matter of millimetres, but it was noticeable. I put this down to the 'soot' being 'harder' than expected and not being fully cleaned by the swabbing out between shots.

Swabs

These were the swabs after 5, 9 and 13 shots. They are sooty but not excessively so. This may be the compromise lube to be used in future. I might try the same lube but with a thinner patch, perhaps 0.012 or even 0.010
