We have the same issue it seems!! My upper lens... see the field out there but, the FRONT sight is not in focus... even NOT using the rear sight! Using the LOWER lens of my Bi-focals... Front sight SHARP, but seeing the Target Center at fifty and beyond creates MUCH to open a group.... or aiming Bam...

Hankster

Hmm, maybe unscrew the SMALL aperture, and run with the bigger one?? May have to give it a try tomorrow...didn't try that yet. It's TOO HOT to go out right now! LOL!

I have a Rossi 92 .357 carbine. It has the NKJ "safety replacement" peep on it. With 38's at 25 yds. It can print 3 shot TOUCHING hole groups. But, at 50 yds... The front sight/target fuzzes up on me when trying to focus.. and the groups expand correspondingly. Didn't even Bother with 100y...

Still here?? yep.. Tornadoes to the North of us.. Tornadoes to the SOUTH of us.... Joplin Disaster F5 twister to the WEST of us..... but we're still here!! Been the Month from HELL here tho!! Monsoons and swampy ground all around us! ENOUGH ALREADY!

Hankster

Whats the Beef with Taurus??? Just curious. Got two of their handguns, since 1999, both shoot good, and have never had any need of service etc... finished good.. are they slipping these days??

Smithing, Reloading, now all about sign language!! Is there nothing you can't learn something about on this site??

Hankster

Heck of a long barreled old Flintlock there!! REAL short length of pull looks like too!

Hankster

Sorry, but "swing out cylinder" revolvers are not a good base to build these "atomic load" handguns on! The first of the commercially sucessfull biggies was the .454 Casull.... and it was designed on a SINGLE ACTION Framed gun for a REASON! STRENGTH! IMHO.....

Hankster

Sorry didn't make it clear.... it obviously was guys shooting these in revolvers beefing about erosion at the top strap and forcing cone....seems some like these type loads for "backpacking" carry... that was what i was commenting on. Whether they are right, or full of it, I have no clue! ...

Hankster

Thank you Hobie, and the rest! I'll be gathering up Powder and bullets and testing for groups soon!! Now, in the meantime I've been reading a lot... and that top strap thing confuses me. Lil Gun is supposed to be a "slower burning" powder.... wouldn't the FAST burning stuff do more "f...

Hankster

NOW we're getting somewhere!! Good info ALL!! And thanks for it!! but Got one more "dumb" question.... OAL of Cartridge.. seeing the 180 "bullet" would be longer.... I take it the comments about case capacity limits mean the OAL of Cartridge is kept the SAME as a 158 gr loaded ca...

Hankster

Ok.. is that 16 grs the MAX load for this gun?? Where should I START, and what gr weight should I NOT go past ?? Like my head where it is! LOL! Sounds like the 180 bullet is the real winner so far! I've never used "Lil' Gun" yet, so I got to ask load level info.... mainly loaded for handgu...

Hankster

Got to go with these guys, put a PEEP on that thing! My eyesight is like yours, can't get all 3 sighting points to focus sharp at once.. a Peep will CURE that problem!

Hankster

I have a 16 1/2"(?) short carbine Rossi 92. Have NKJ's safety/Peep & follower on order, and am now looking to get a good loading for deer ready... I used to use a 30-30.. and would like to get near that level of knockdown power, worked good for me before! I never seem to shoot past 100yds.....

Hankster

Is that similar to "Vegemite"??

550 rd Federal .22s are 18.96 in Missouri Wal-Marts as of this morning..... Over 100% jump over what they used to be just a few years back WTH??? WAY ahead of "inflation"....

Hankster

We don't clean and oil our guns???? BP ESPECIALLY!!!! Black Powder is Hygroscopic... it ATTRACTS water from the air, SPEEDING up the rusting process!!! Even if you don't have time to give em a PROPER cleaning after shooting, pull the nipples, soak em with oil, until you CAN!

Hankster

A bit more to "barking" a squirrel .. lead for bullets wasn't that readily available back then, in thew wilds, or being a "poor backwoodsman"..so by "barkin the game, you know where the lead round ball went, and were able most of the time, to dig it back out with your knife,...

Hankster

Weight of the gun has an impact on recoil... but another is the "drop" of the stock. An M-16 has an almost straight back stock, and recoil is minimal. You get a gun with a stock that "drops" alot, and you'll get a cheek banger, AND a shoulder thumper! Don't have the Marlin here t...

Does an aperture rear sight and fiberoptic front help with eyesight issues? It does for me!!! Regular open sights are useless with my sight,the rear sight is so fuzzy it's unshootable that way.. but with a rear peep and good visibility front... no problem at all!! A good peep basically "gets ri...

B-24's were the "workhorse" of the war due to longer range/heavier payload... but they were a PITA to fly.... and the Davis wing, tho it could lift a heavier load, was WEAK due to the stress/loading factor....a hit that would simply stagger and shake a B-17, would cause the wing to collaps...

Posts got me to thinking, How'd I kill that deer last fall??? Picked up the 94 and looked out the back door.. I can see em and sight. Picked up the 39M Mountie, looked out.. I can see em and sight! 92 Carbine? No go.... the other two are full size 20" barreled models... Williams & or Lyman ...

First off, I wear bi-focals. Took my 92 carbine out to try out the new sights, and I cannot see them! A Lyman bead up from, the Marbles Bullseye on the back.. both are so fuzzy I can't use them.
