Winter just don't ...........

[Kurt]

Hey! no fair rubbing in the good weather

My 1/7 rot shoots a 1.465" in fine shape. The 19 ROT .44-90bn I shot the MT 1000 with held it own with a 505 gr 1.465" long KAL elliptical.
That little extra powder capacity helps shooting that bullet.
The .44-77 does well on the Buffalo on the hill side at Raton using a 485 gr Sharps bullet at around 1100 yards it just splattered on and just around the white plate hanging on that buff using the barrel sights.
I might be making a mistake not putting a tang sight on this rifle that has windage adjustments and use it for the midrange and silhouette matches, but I build that rifle for hunting and this is what it will stay.
