I am the proud owner of a Mike Brooks 62 cal rifle.She is a beauty...Thanx Mike.
Now that the weather is breaking and I can get to my shooting hole.
I have started the process of sighting in,the fun part,marrying me to the rifle.I want to get the best out of it,to do the Builder and the owner proud on our new journey together.
OK long intro,sorry
the problem I have is patch blowby,I am using 18 thou denim patches...20 thou is too tight and 15 too loose.
Using a 600 ball in a 620 barrel
with lube (wonderlube) and spit patch,with a hard card between powder and ball,still getting burntout sections in patches!!!
I have a 3x2 group so far with 65 grain of 2f powder at 25 yard.not good .
I am reluctant to continue til I solve the burnout problem

How,in your opinions do I eliminate the blowout ?
