Now for some black powder shooting....my .50 cal Frontier rifle, 50 grains Triple 7 powder, .015 patch and .490 lead ball.
Some 50 yd off hand work, very satisfied with this one....

Then a double sided target....the black dots are on the back of a 100 yd effort off hand (just masking the holes), and the back side of the same sheet I set up at 250 yds just to see if I could even hit it...2 shots and got it once! You can see the tear in the paper. Not bad for primitive sights, and off hand shooting! Aiming just over the top of the white sheet of paper....lots of drop as you can see but my elevation was not far off and windage a little off too. Quite the delay between the shot and the sound of the hit.

Here you can see the sheet of paper on the 250 yd....that's a long way out there. I even zoomed in for the photo too.
