OKEYDOKEY, Just finished the test Miller suggested. I have a 100 yd rifle range right behind the house, laser meaured. I moved 28 yds behind the bench, 2 more yards would have put me in the road ditch, where I couldnt see the target..So that what you'll have to live with. I put a rock on one of my "Kribs for Sheriff' Election signs, on the backstop, went back and let er fly. The first shot, holding where I could see the rock, broke it with a one pellet hit. The 2nd shot, covering it, broke it with 4 pellets striking it. The 3rd shot, same hold, broke it with a 2 pellet hit. Thus one can conclude, that a clay bird can be broken 100% of the time at 128 yards. Now before all you engineers and experts who wear their underwear one size too small start in with sample size, dispersions, cone shapes and such, I must tell you, I dont care. Gun was a Lefever E Grade 10 bore, Out of the box RST #5's and one of the best shots extant at the gun.
So when hOmeless jOe, Joe wood, and I are toting our 10's when the gang is here in December, we must not hesitate to shoot roosters at extreme range, being flushed by Chuck H's new english pointer...I sent pictures to couple of the guys to post for me..
