Getting my son out to shoot is tough. He is a LPN and a local EMT so he is always on call. Well I put new sights on his MK85 this spring and I got it kind of sighted in out to 250 yards.
His load is our old Paper Patched Lee 500 S&W bullet with an over powder wad and 80 grains of pyrodex P.
I needed him to shoot it to verify it so I could paint the marks. Everything went well from 100 out to 250. This picture is of him getting ready to shoot.
The target is at the base of the far hill.

The hit is the dark circle just to the right of center.

This is the rifle.
