any info on a Caldwell Lead Sled you can give would be appreciated .... there are different models shown on Amazon .... https://www.amazon.com/Caldwell-336647- ... +Lead+Sled .... bags of lead weights and such are mentioned .... how do they come into play

It's surprising how far we can hit with using issue iron sights. Before I put Skinner sights on I'd just hold up some front sight & it'd get me to very long range.
Good shooting.

I have been following Iraqveteran8888's videos for years now and he is a great guy, a gun shop owner and he has a pretty large following on youtube.
Lately he has been getting away from the AK/AR type guns to the more traditional stuff. He has some really great video's with a few how too's also.
