this one is a little tighter than the last one, vertical sight was set just a hair high. at each shooting session, I guess the wind then set the horizontal and vertical sights and see how well I do without a spotting scope

11.7 inch bullseye

.40-65 Shiloh Sharps
BR II primers
55 grains Swiss 1.5 black powder
422.2 grain hand cast Paul Jones Bullet
MVA "iron sights"

If I was not old, not as fat nor out of shape I would go for it.

this is probably my best 10 shot group yet, it did not take but 2 years to get to this point.

500 yards is my next step
