Title: Range report on refinished 1898 Post by jay dee on Nov 1st, 2013 at 9:49pm
This is the 1898 that I refinished in an earlier post I was asked to let you know how it shoots.This is from a makeshift bench that I put together at fifty yards. (You need to Login Remington express 180 gr. core-lokt (You need to Login It has been years since I have tried to shoot for groups and my eyes have gotten much worse.I was very happy with this group given that I can no longer focus on the sights and see the target.I would appreciate any tips that anyone might have to aid in sighting.I thought maybe white paint to outline the sight. As far as the ammo I fired 5 rounds of remington express while I was trying to make my bench more comfortable.This gave me about a 7'' group ,I relaxed and tried five more with some WW Super ammo from 1970's with not so good results,maybe 12'' and they packed much more punch.The last five are remington express on the target above.
