75 range report

[Pitchy]

Got some balls from Frank so we geared up and headed to the cabin to shoot. Used a denium patched ball over 70 grains of FFF.
target was a 20 yards, twelve shots covering about an eight inch group. Not bad seeing my serpentine wasn`t working right so it was hard to hold and get a shot off. Very pleased all and all.











Whoops, match in the pan but no go, errrr







Snoopy in backpack snug and warm for the hike too the cabin.

Cool Bud  Man I thought my Beagle was spoiled  But I guess he'd get lost in the snow and you would have a heck of a time findin him again

Looks like a great with day lots of fun shooting

[Pitchy]

Thanks gents, yep a funday, cold about five above and a strong wind. That`s why we went to the cabin so we could shoot and not freeze. I think this thing will shoot pretty good after i get used to it.

Dang!  That's good shooting for a primitive firearm like that.  I wouldn't be afraid to take that one hog hunting!  One can usually get really close to hogs if they get the wind right.  Snoopy looks like he's right at home in that backpack!  :)    

[Pitchy]

Thanks Ironwood, heck this thing will take a deer next year out to 40 yards after i get her tuned in.

I don't doubt that at all Pitchy.... I'm sure you are going to have fun tinkering with that one.  I still like the idea of the shotgun slug.  I've killed a few deer and some hogs with slugs.  Makes a big hole.. :)  I have a 12 gauge rifled choke tube for a Remington if you can use it let me know.   I don't think I'll be shooting that ol' 870 any time soon.

Love an 870.....best shotgun made in my opinion!!

[Roaring Bull]

Forgot to say that the shooting looks like fun too.  Gotta get me a cabin I can shoot out of!!

[Pitchy]

Thanks Bull, Ironwood i don`t have a need for the tube now but thanks for the offer.
