Dang fine looking target there RR. You must have been thinking about taking home one of those buffalo. Some mighty good steaks there. ;)

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.



250 yards?!!!! Is that Canadien yards? lololol

Yup 250 yds Canadian = 65 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 oz of Yukon Jack. Easy math.

Very nice shooting sir. It is just as impressive as the surroundings. The 250 yard shot is a really great effort.
To be able to shoot like that off hand is at all of those ranges is a great skill. Well done!
