Been WAY too long

Today was the first day of the summer season that I shot a powder burner. The only shooting I've done this season so far has been by air.
I'm at the cabin and decided to shoot a bit today. I chose my BBS 357 20". It wears a 1-3ร20 Weaver scope. Also, on my hip was my EDC 9mm.
First was the 357. I set up at approx. 40 yds. I used the deck railing as a rest. The first 5 rounds into the anatomical target were PMC 158 gr. JSP. First five were a bit high. Second five, I held under a bit and the results weren't bad.
I then loaded up 10 rounds that Vaquero ( Randy ) prepared for me a while back and shot at a different target. He would have to give you the recipe as I don't reload. He was kind enough to give them to me.
I, personally was impressed with the load. It helped me look better on paper.
I think two of the 10 went through open passages.
I then tried my EDC 9mm on the anatomical target, standing, from about 5 yrds. or so. 14 rounds rather quickly. I'm ok with those results.as well.
