    Grabbed 15 pieces brass and 15 pills off another forum member.
    Loaded up 7 at one grain below max and 8 at max to fit the mag.

    3 random factory rounds to get roughly zeroed (fluked decent zero)

    Shot first 7

    No pressure.

    Started shooting max

    Hit a bit of pressure. Stopped shooting, no point shooting the remaining 2 rounds

    Job done. Hunting time
