Shooting a Western DISC
« on: June 10, 2019, 11:25:38 AM »
Had a little time this morning so I made a run for the farm.  When I got to the farm the temp was 55 and warming quickly.  When I left it was already 70 and getting hotter quickly!

I had made basically this same shoot a day or two ago but I made a change in the rifle I wanted to see if it made a difference for me.

Friday - I discovered a couple of things... with open sights and shooting Orange Clay Pigeons - I had a couple problems! At 100 yards the birds are much smaller than when shooting with a scope and the bigger problem it was really hard to see the location of the Red front sight on the Orange bird.  I decided after the Friday shoot I would change the Red Fiber Optic to Green.

So I went from this:



To this



Today - this morning, and for myself, this made a huge difference in my sight picture.  There was a definite difference between the sight and the target.  It didn't do a darn thing for the size of the bird @ 100 yards but I really could see where the front sight was on the bottom of the bird.

Collection of pics of this mornings shoot...



And basically the same work area as last week



Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!
