200 yds. with open sights...that is fantastic shooting! Sometimes I pick up those off brand 2 liters when on sale. They make great targets
even with a .22 !
Forty I'm not one, but
have a couple friends/buddies that shoot 600+yards and farther with those ladder sights.
It's amazing. 45 colts even some of them.

Ladder sight is tricky. Easy to send lead way over the target.
I've never had the chance to try a ladder sight. How do you keep the lead on target so well with it?

Just shoot lots I guess. Only 1 rifle maybe too. Plus sent lots over the backboard into the dirt too.

If it wasn't for the fact I'd have to clean up...expanding foam would be fun too.

.
Expanding foam is easy to clean up. Let it cure and then rake it up with your favorite leaf rake.
