I'm wanting to get a conversion revolver to play with BP cartridges (and also finally have a revolver to shoot smokeless loads indoors).
But I've only got ~$500 to play with.
I love the style of the old open top colts. I already have a walker and an 1860. I cant touch the 1860, but I can...
Unfortunately I had to hang it up before I even got started.
My local outdoor range (Elm Fork) is STILL underwater from the last flood. So no dice. Maybe in a couple of months.
Merry Christmas guys!
I am considering hitting the outdoor range tomorrow and shooting my colts that I haven't had out in probably a year or so.
I have probably half a box of hornady .454 lead balls that I pulled out of my black powder box and they're coated in a fined even coat of lead...
I am weary of the same, which is why when I eventually do go hunting, I've purchased a .308. Thought I think .223/5.56 is adequate for small deer if applied correctly, based on anecdotal evidence.
What I feel is an important distinction here is that that concern isnt really applicable to the...
...salient question: does anyone really believe that a cheap multi-piece, assembled bolt has any possible advantage over a one-piece forged steel bolt*excepteconomy of manufacture?"
- The only issue I see with this is possible design short comings. If a well designed multi-piece bolt can last...
Hah!
I work for airbus helicopters, so I get to enjoy the constant bounce between metric and standard.
Metric is so much easier... until I get into a car. Then it's just wrong.
I have no problem with learing ballistics in metric and shooting that way is all of the ranges here are in yards.
Also a good point. I won a bunch of reloaded 147gr at my last 3 gun match, so I'll probably use that even if the overall groups probably wont be as tight as the match ammo.
There are some ranges around here (north Texas) that go out that far, but unfortunately none of them will let you shot at those distances unless I can prove it's accurate on the 25yd range first. Getting it close on paper at 25yds isn't a big deal, but with the differents between yards and...
Yeah I figured as much.
I don't imagine the bullet drop will be much different over a 2yd distance difference.
Where I get hung up is if I go for a 200yd zero. It should be about 1.25"-1.50" low at 25yds.
But then If I take it out to 200yds, I assume that the setting for 200meters will put me...
Hey guys I need help zeroing the diopter iron sights on my PTR91 for ranges in yards.
I understand the process of zeroing sights in general. The problem I am having here is that most of the ballistics data I can find for .308 (specifically HSM 168gr BTHPM) is all in yards. The 0-100, 200, 300 &...
I just bought a PTR91 GI model last month and shot it for the first time in a 3 gun match I was working over the weekend on friday.
It was rough to operate it when I first got it, but after running a 20rd mag through it during my attempt to sight it in. It smoothed out considerably. Now with...
I agree with all of the above. I looks a bit unstable too. You can see it bounce and wobble a bit as it drops.
However, it may be marginally more humane than the tannerite one.
