These tests were performed in May 1997
The two targets below were shot in June
The one thing to remember here is I am not a great shooter, so please no snide remarks!

100 yards
The target on the left was shot first with 55g Sierra BT, 25.5 grain Accurate powder. There was no cleaning between shots and a total of 20 rounds were fired with no waiting in between shots.
The target to the right was shot the same day after a cleaning
of the rifle with, of course, KG Gun Care. As you can see the coated rounds are
holding much better to a group than the Uncoated rounds did.
This next target was shot by Jim at Paul's in Simi Valley. He was shooting a
45cal flint smooth bore at 100 yards. He recorded only four shots to be fair but
if you talk to him he will tell you it was five shots two in the same hole.
