I'll start this off by saying it was chilly. Only 45 degrees, so I'm sure that affected my numbers. Second, it was drizzling and my targets were getting soaked so I didn't swab between shots. Overall, I'm pretty happy with all three loads I shot. I really like the TRS-25 on my gun and this being the first time I've ever shot 3.5's, I can say it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Starting with the new triple beards at 20. 2 shots, both were low, but the pattern was very good. I like this patter closer in better than the longboards and you'll see why when we get there.

Now the triple beards at 40. The pattern opened up a good amount, but I'm thinking with warmer weather, the numbers will get better.
