Range Day 0716

Post by Ohio3Wheels »

Made it to the range yesterday with the 357 '92 and the Sharps. Trying to get an early start on hunting loads this year and I think I'm happy with the 40-65 loads. Still need to try some different inserts in the globe but this was 5 at 50 using the cross hair insert (not a great choice on a black bull). 400 gr cast, 60 gr 2F, Starline cases and Federal LRM.

The '92 on the other hand wasn't at all happy with anything I brought for it, so no pictures :( .

Elevation is set spot on.

Shoulda posted the failures too. We can learn a lot from those.

Good evening
That 400 grainer should plow a deep nasty leak out hole on whatever it slams into. Maybe an elk will amble along your way. You certainly have enough gun for even those big green stuff munchers.

Elk found out I had the gun and left Ohio for greener pastures :D
