I shot two cylinders-factory and a spare purchaced seperately-at a 25 yd target today...I failed to bring my camera, because it was around 14 degrees with wind chills round' five. The chosen load was 30 gr pyrodex p, .060 fiber wad, Cabelas lubed pistol wad(sagebrush), and a 180 gr buffalo bullets rn pistol conical. I rested off a ledge at the pistol range without a bag, but still managed to group all twelve shots around 7". The only problem is that the group was dead on with 6 o'clock hold at 25 yds, but all shots struck the target about 6" left of bullseye. I dont think replacing the sight would do much good, nor do I think it would be cost effective. Kentucky windage time:evil: The flask had a 30gr spout, though I never checked actual weight.
 
Frosty, yer a real man fer being out shootin in that kind of cold. hee hee You may not need any adjustment or Kentucky windage with yer gun. It may just shoot a little off center "from the benched" position. Try shootin off hand next time and see if the gun still shoots the same way as when benched.
 
NOT BAD ATALL

Yessiree Frosty! ya did mighty good at that range for the first time. Sometimes you find that shootin off to one side or nuther is caused by yer hold on the pistol....you might try adjusting your hold so you are squeezin the trigger with the very last part of yer index finger. When I squeeze the trigger with the first joint of the finger it will pull th point of impact off to the left.......
Makin this change might help ya some.....
KEEP ON SHOOTIN! ( it is much more pleasurable when the temp is around 70
degrees F. )
