150 yd Flintlock shot
Posted: Mon Mar 25, 2024 10:22 pm
Was at the range on weekend during the snowstorm, we got over a foot of snow. 18F when I was shooting.
Here's a cool one, Frontier flintlock, .480 ball, .015 patch and 50 grains of 3F powder.
I put one on the steel plate at 150 yds off hand. Mostly just shoot the 50 to 100 yd steel but I thought I'd go for it. The plate is steel painted blue with a yellow middle. It's mounted on the far hill at 10 o'clock to the wooden target board on the right side of the 1st photo. That target board is at the 75 yd marker.
Midway as I walked out to see it
Getting closer
My hit is at 9 o'clock on the yellow dot
Very satisfying for an old guy....
