	Well, that's a big let down. All that for nothing.

	I slugged the barrel and used guage plugs.(.376-.369) I just bought a .370 diameter bullet thats .001 over groove diameter so the muzzleloading will begin! The mold should be here by the end of the week and hopefully this weekend I will give it a trial run.

	I had a 36" piece of brass stock and robbed the spare aluminum plunger body and turned it into the ram rod body. I'm getting closer!

	I would write on the target, big enough to be read through the scope - "Did you seat the bullet?"
