One on top of two Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 went to my local; range today . It was blowing an absolute gale and driving rain but as the shooting point were covered , game on !! grabbed the uberti 1873 44/40 and a handful of home loads shooting over 75m ( 82yrds ) No bi pod , No scope . just shooting off my elbow and open sights ( buckthorn style ) even though my front blade sight was covering the target , I had the best old school fun in a long while 30 shots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1066 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Not bad at all. Someone with less integrity could crop the top of the target and claim two 5 shot x 1moa groups with open sights and off elbows, just nice to see the whole target.

I just wish I could get my .410 to pattern that good at 20 yards 😂 there are shots at my local club that could do that standing . We have some fine shooters at the club , however I doubt very much any of them would have had half the fun I did 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
