Gday guys, loving the forum.... have a hard time finding anything better to do at a night time than scan forums for key topics and further delve into rabbit holes .... particularly levergunnin with cast.......
So ive been pickng up here and there, that some fellas own layzers and some own 100 year old tack drivers.......... This could be an intranet thing but some do post occaisonal target photos backing up their claims...
not here for that arguement rather a discussion around Acceptable Accuracy for Hunting deer sized game, from a Lever gun, Open sighted..........
Do you shoot 50m or 100m with 3 shots before claiming the group size? i see some guys shoot 75 yards/m , claiming 3/4 inch 3 shots at 75...........
i see some realists out there commenting their experiences, some mention 3 inches at 100 yards/m is Great hunting accuracy from Model 94s etc...
Do you prefer a reasonable sized target 6 inch +, an point an shoot to find where your max is? without holding over?
or do you know your limit and set up rifle and load to maximise its uses... EG- offset 100m zero? or bang on 100m zero for 150max. etc... your mileage will vary from the next.
im not totally stoked on the accuracy i am getting with this new bullet , but im not against it either, We have shot some Deer together now but well under 100m each time, 50 & 60m . so im due to punch a 3 shot group out this week,,,,,, wanna hear where i should be shootin... 50-75 or 100?
Thanks! look forward to the chat n hearing your experiences
