Took my latest acquisition out for a little plinking after work Friday.
Sun was on it's way down and it was still pushing 100deg F. so I didn't stay long.
It's a .357mag and I was shooting handloads to set my new Skinner peeps.
Speer 158gr SP over 14.6gr 2400, remmy brass, Winny standard small pistol primers.
After I got it hitting where I wanted I popped 5 shots at my homemade gong. All hit in the same spot @ 50 yards, standing with my front hand on a sandbag. That particular lane at the range has a very tall table. The hits show up on the paint in the pic below.
I was so happy with those results I went ahead and jumped from my gong at 50 yards, to the range gong at 200 yards. First two appeared low, so I shifted to a high 12 o'clock hold (it's an 18" gong @ 200 yard), and the next 7 rounds made that chunk of steel ring.
Much fun for a short trip. And a big thumbs up for the Skinner peep.
