Windy fall day...

Post by RanchRoper » Mon Oct 10, 2022 4:11 pm

Very windy day, hence why I named my flintlock "Chinook". :)

Frontier .50 cal, 8" target all shots off hand at 50 yds. Got a few in the money zone, but I'm pretty happy considering the wild wind today, just to get all in the 8" circle.

RR looks like some mighty fine shooting in the wind. Most folks would be happy with that target on a calm day.

Keep you powder dry. :D

Cross wind or head wind? Looks like the wind doesn't bother those heavy chunks of lead much! Of course great shooting from 50 and that would be a great 20 yard target for me!
