1859 Sharps Barrel Reline...UPDATE!
- Thread starter rbertalotto
- Start date
Yup...It Shoots!
50 yds / 430g LEE / 70g Shockey FFG / CCI LR Mag Primers
Bench rested:
Off Hand:
I drifted the sight over and the next few shots were spot on windage.
Interestingly, I made a front sight out of a brass door lock key. Made it tall and took a file to the range. With a 6-O'clock hold, at 50yds, it was near perfect elevation!
Tomorrow I'll load some more ammo and take it out to 100yds and 200yds
