I don’t sight many guns in on targets, today will be no different. Rocks seem to be my preferred target. I borrowed a bullet mould from Mike Venturino and went to his book on shooting lever actions to find a load to try. I am using a 38-55 250 grain bullet sized at .379 with gas check.
Finding brass is difficult. If there is anyone with some 38-72 brass, I would like to get some…
Wow, I’m in love again. This rifle shoots unbelievably well. I set a rock up at 50 yards about the size of a salt shaker, missed high and left. I dropped the elevation one mark and knocked the rear sight over a snitch and busted the rock with the next shot. I then put a rock up at 100 yards, moved the elevator up another notch and hit the rock dead center. I then moved the elevator up one notch at a time and it regulates to 50, 100, 150 and 200 yards on the first 4 notches.
I put it back down to the first notch and then went looking for a gopher that was’t afraid of the Covid virus and shot him with another well placed 255 grain cast bullet…
