.357 Carbine shooting results
.357 Carbine shooting results
I posted earlier (incorrectly) in the rimfire forum about my Henry .357 carbine. I had a Skinner peep sight mounted on the receiver a couple of weeks ago so I took it to the range to see what it could do. Here's some inexpensive range ammo (New Republic) ammo at 50 yards. To get the Skinner peep sight to zero out, I had to replace the front sight with a .570" blade (also from Skinner). The rear sight is now right in the middle of its adjustment range. At my age I'm pretty happy with this result!

Nicely done for sure.
I'd take that at 50 all day long.
The ole 357 out of a lever gun is just so much fun.

Re: .357 Carbine shooting results
That sure looks good to me!
Nice job getting the parts you needed to put your adjustments in the center of their range too.
I'll bet that carbine is handy as heck to carry around.

Re: .357 Carbine shooting results
Very nice. Miss Tina was surprised at how nice the 357 carbine shot. She didn't like the 357 handguns, but loved the Henry and shot it well.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
