Here’s my latest attempt. 440 RB patched 018 ticking. 50gr Swiss3f. tC 13 lube. POA center of target.
Better luck next time.

Hey Salty, you're like me. Close but no cigar this time. Just plain frustrating.

Anyone try the Rev. sized target lately? Went to the range with the 45TC Hawken today to try something before the PA flintlock season. So naturally I just had to try the shingle first. And naturally I missed it big time. No cigar and not even close. I hope that's not a sign of how deer season is going to be.

Well took a cold bore  poke at the shingle today before my postals.
 No idea where it hit(missed)  but I sure didn't hit my backer let alone the shingle. Wah wah .

Captain Morgan Is still looking for a few more good men. Who is going to be the next latter day Sharpshooter to earn the special Alex Hamilton certificate redeemable for Sam Adams' special brew??? 🏆
