Went to the range yesterday and ended up just practicing off hand at 25 yards. Old (and bad) eyes - Got another eye doc visit tomorrow - made it hard to focus on the front sight so I mostly shot by sense of smell. And did better than I did from the bench. .40 TVM flint Lancaster, 40grns 3F. 4 flyers (3 called) with about 2 dozen shots; 2.5". Target already had a few .22LR holes but the .40 tore the center out.
Doesn't look like you need to see the eye doc! Good job!
Thanks, Dogshirt, but not only do I keep getting floaters I've got too much pressure in my eyes he wants to monitor. Doesn't matter since I shoot blindfolded, anyway. noway
Looks like you have her sighted in Good!
If you lived in California you could get a prescription for a natural medicine for the too much pressure thing.
But since you dont You can get medicine at the Pharmacist that Costs 5 times as much and will work 1/2 as well And have far worse side effects..
(Heck you could Grow it yourself???) [hmm] hdslp pnic pnic
Unfortunately we will always have the floaters. No way to get rid of them. But that is some good shooting, Hanshi. All you need now is the 50 yard bench target.
I know its not what most would do, BUT try a peep sight on the tang. May not belong on the TVA but Its amazing how clear the target is at 50 yards. For years I used a peep sight on the bowstring with a 6x scope on my bow. It may not be acceptable, But atleast the arrow hit a 6 inch bull at 80 yards. To each his own, what ever works.
That is still nice shooting!
[hmm]Hmmmm, Seems I recall "floaters" being something entirely different as described in True Crime. ;D
Nice shoot'n Hanshi! Them "floater's mean your human. A LIVE HUMAN(true crimes)..

Fine shooting, Dogshirt. Check your ancestry; I'll bet you have Southern blood from somewhere. [conf]
Gotta understand, too, that the rebels were sent into battle with one bullet and one bullet only. That's all they needed. 'SNTY"
[hmm] Eeaassyy we're tellin our age.

Well perhaps SOUTH DAKOOOTA???? [conf] [hmm] hdslp ROFL ROFL ROFL
pnic We're surrounded by Yankees!
great shootin both of you !
And IMHO the main reason the North came out on top was not the combat ability of the average trooper on either side but the fact that the North had the industrial might to finace the war. Both sides had a populace that was growing weary of the cost in financal and human terms...

The way I see it, the reason they only needed on bullet and one bullet only is because that should have been all that was needed to shoot themselves! hdslp ROFL pnic blah
Well we here in Indian territory were never prejudice. We took from both sides, things such as horses, cattle, gold, silver, gunpowder,lead and even in hard times we'd take your old paper money too. LMAO,ROFLMAO flwa [conf] chrrs chrrs strpot strpot blah
The only thing I have say about this , is I was no where near track 10 when the derailment occurred bunkr bunkr ROFL
