Greatest hits of 1860...

Post by RanchRoper » Mon Apr 13, 2020 8:31 am

Reruns. I have no idea what days these were shot, but this will have to do for a range report until things get back to normal! Whenever it was, it was fun. :D....these are just stuck on my gun cabinet, or on the wall near the reloading bench...

Ammo: probably reloads, 200 gr or 250 gr anywhere from 6.5gn to 7.0 gn Universal
Wind speed: 0 - ? mph
Temperature: 20F - 80F
Might have been drinking coffee, tea or hot chocolate in a go cup
1860 Henry 45 Colt

Anybody else who wants to relive moments of past glory, feel free to put 'em up here! Full details, sketchy details or none at all, let's see some targets full of holes. Until some of the ranges are open again, this might have to do...

the targets below reflect about the best shooting I'm capable of at this point in time .... I have no doubt that in someone else's hands our Henry BBS 44 Mag is capable of producing a tighter group .... on both of these days the weather conditions were close to perfect

the first target below was fired on Aug 24, 2018 at our Son's range .... 50 of our loads .... 23.8 gr W296 or H110 (don't remember which) pushing Nosler 240 gr JHP bullets .... fired at 50 yards from a portable bench rest ...

the second target was fired December 1, 2018 at the same range, with the same ammo .... this time 100 rounds @ 100 yards ....

One of my very first targets; and five years later, I'm still nowhere near the shooter that RanchRoper is. :(

Looks like a lot of holes in the meat on the table zone to me CT.

Maybe NCG will find a couple of her long range pistol bulls-eyes we can all drool over....
