Last lead of 2020, 1885 Highwall

[RanchRoper]

36F today. 2020 in the history books. Shooting 200 gr LRNFP with 6.7 gn Universal. Pretty much a plinking load in this rifle. 45 Colt. Not much wind today so long distance shooting.


100 yds, off hand, eat your Wheaties, this is a heavy rifle... 8" target, these are with just the buckhorns, no tang

Just amazing shooting for us regular folks! Great way to shoot out the year 2020 RR !

[Cofisher]

Well done RR. You and that rifle were made for each other.
Happy New Year buddy.

[North Country Gal]

Fine, fine work, RR. You picked a classic to end your shooting year.

Yeah, standard High Walls are a no go for offhand shooting for this girl. Low Walls with shorter, tapered barrels I can do.

RR is an inspiration for me to work on my High Wall and 1873 Winchester shooting for 2021!

[RanchRoper]

Ya it is really heavy. After a few shots I turn from Quigley to Squigley. Guess that's why the crossed sticks were invented....

Haha...my resolution is to shoot, shoot and shoot some more. And hopefully get to my first rendezvous...
