New Frontier caplock

Post by RanchRoper » Wed Apr 03, 2024 9:42 pm

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. :lol:

What a fine looking firearm and that target ain’t too bad neither

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