I just came back from shooting. I tried MY version of moose snot, and it loaded well, kept the patches from burning but soaked the powder and wet fouled the left barrel to the point of mushy goo coming out the nipple. I had to pull the nipple and clean out enough to get some powder in to eject the load. Cleaned it with patches since I was in the field, squibbed about 10 tens and tried again. Right barrel started shooting better for no apparent reason and the left barrel went to hell. They must be getting broken in and or fouled out. I'm pretty fustrated right now. I know a lot of this is me. I just need to spend a lot of time with the gun. The good thing is that the gun likes 130 FFg, doesn't make a difference if its 130 or 80 shoots the same.

I do believe the patches are getting cut, and I just received the lapping compound so I'll lap the barrels tonight or tomorrow and try it again.
