At 50 yards ...

The wind was pretty durn gusty and I was having problems with sun glare on the sights. But I had a good time and proved to myself that Green Dot can give good accuracy in the .45 Colt. I knew it worked well in the .45 ACP and the 25 yard groups with the .45 Colt sure showed potential.

Best Group of the Day
-was almost completely off the target! Sun glare on the front sight did not help my poor eyesight.

I blackened the front sight that changed the point of impact quite bit!

As far as I concerned, Green Dot is as accurate as any powder I have tried in the .45 Colt. From previous use I know it works well in the .45 ACP.
