Challenging little target....
Shot this one this morning for a little friendly competition;
Frontier .50 cal
50 grains Triple 7 2f powder
.490 patched lead ball
Had to be 25 yds off hand to qualify. 1 shot at each 1.5" bullseye. No do-overs.
11F this morning at the range, zero wind though which is why I went early. Tough one for sure.
Shoot safe, RR

Great shooting especially in sun-freezing temperatures.

Re: Challenging little target....
Took my full stock to the range today along with a pistol. Full Stock had issues. Found a load for the pistol but my rifle needs attention

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
