Today the weather is darn near perfect, little breezy but nothing bad. Printed out the targets and made the long walk to back of my property. Now come the Old timers disease, C.R.S., for what ever reason I could not remember the distance that was specified, so I just set mine up at 25ft. Shooting my 1958 Buffalo- 20g Triple 7 powder .451 round ball. First shot was low and slightly left of center, so was the second. Third shot was closer to center, at least close enough for my old eyes anyway. Second target was about the same nothing to brag about but at least still holding about a 3 inch group. Then I read the specs on range and threw out the targets. But at least I got a chance to go shoot a few rounds. After next week according to doctors estimate it will be another two months before I can go back out unless I can get a four wheel drive power chair. Just wait I'm gonna drill that target at 15 yds or at least shoot it close and just plain lie about distance.

Hi WALKERs210,


15 Yards, 25 Feet, who cares?


Glad to hear you got out and DID IT..!


Was nice Weather here today, and, as usual, I was tied-to-the-Mast...


I like fifteen yards, since, out of shape, and out of practice, Sun in my eyes, too many PallMalls, too much Coffee, too little sleep, Target a dull blurr wandering around the front Sight, windy and drizzling out, target blowing half the time horizontal like a damned Clothesline undie, shooting one handed, well, it keeps me duely 'Humble'.


Lol...
