Love the pics with the cloud of smoke!

Gunner has an 8 bore. It's fairly energetic in recoil. That's with his "mild" loads

the big kickers may be coming to an end for me. Shooting this 9 lb .475 Turnbull with 500 gr heavy loads seem to have my shoulder complaining a lot.

In case you noticed I took the vernier off as he can't shoot it just yet. Why?

In case you noticed I took the vernier off as he can't shoot it just yet. Why? He's shot glass most of his life but wants to get proficient with open sights like he's shooting on my Marlin 444 first.I feel this is a natural progression and the correct way before tackling a vernier.

When he gets there he'll love them. Even these old 68 year old eyes do well with them on the 45-70.

10-4.. I really enjoy the vernier and it's improved my sight acquisition by at least 40%.It's perfect for the long range open ground we hunt where our deer rarely see orange..Won't be long till there's a tang on the Marlin either..

My shooting of late has been testing out self defense loads in various handguns to make sure of their reliability. That and teaching my kids on various .22's. I haven't had time to shoot any big boomers.
