Took it to the range this afternoon, 50 yds off hand in a 50km crosswind. I filed the front sight down some to get this result. After this I was ringing steel at 50/75/100 yds and quite enjoyed myself.

Yeah, when I looked at the above picture the first thing I thought is you could fire the ball on Wednesday which would then clear the muzzle on Thursday.
What a fine looking firearm and that target ain’t too bad neither

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

That’s a .480 ball, they load easy and shoot pretty good.
