As most of you know, I picked up my used Cbob on 12/9/11 of last year. It was brought to my attention that I had never posted a range report even though I'd pm'd a few of you about it's first outing.

So here goes. Today was it's fourth trip since acquisition. I've shot approx. 450 rds through it with a few FTRB's ( I'm guessing I need a new recoil spring) and the fact that the spent brass ejects directly to the right( really annoys other shooters, especially the 2nd guy to my right...hehehe) The only other problem was my inability to properly put powder in the casing prior to seating the bullet which resulted in 3 squibs, but that's another story.

So here's pictures of todays work. No, I'm not going to win any awards with my shooting. I love this gun, I love to shoot and I'm going to continue going as often as I can to have fun with hopes of improvement!

Great Report and Nice Pics, you will get use to shooting your CBOB and also will get better with is when you find a Load that you and the CBOB likes.......Don't give up on finding the perfect load for it sometimes takes a while.............

Very nice.

Just a wild guess, but might your FRTB be caused by a bit too much case flare prior to seating the bullets?

3 squibs???? You just told on yourself..I thought it was 1. Looking at the target, I'd say you're holding MOD (Minute Of Dead) good job.
