Take target down, add some fresh corn, hunt the next morning.

Lol.. you're gonna have a tough time trying to make Texans hate on Tennessee.

Your 200gr load should be faster and flatter shooting than my 35 Rem lever action load.

220gr Speer at 2175 fps over Leverevolution powder.

+3 at 100 yards is dead on at 175 yards, down two more inches at 200, used that load to kill and very heavy bodied mature 8pt buck at 156 yards.

It's not the Covid that's affecting his eyesight. It's the being stuck at home and looking at porn on the computer that's doing it. You know the old--if you do it, you'll go blind thing...

I'll probably sound stupid, but I'll say it anyway. I sight my rifles in at a given distance and shoot them at other distances to see where they are.

You just keep it hush hush so no one knows you own a gun.
Anyone admitting they own a gun and hunts is to blame for liberals wanting to take them. LOL!

I have a Marlin 336C 35 Rem. I've gone back and forth with peep sights and scopes on it over the years. I always zeroed it at 100 yards.

This thread is pretty funny to say the least. I wasn’t looking for a 300 yard point of impact of course, I was just wanting to get the most I could out of this brush gun, since I was forced to put a scope on it.
I really liked it just iron sights.

As far as Covid affecting my eyesight, it has blurred my vision. A lot of others who have had it listed that as a side affect, I pray the ones on here that find this so amusing never experience it.

At least this thread has brought out some of the real DB’s on this forum, so now I know who they are. 😁

Thanks, Robinhedd

I think robinhedd may have just been looking for a general consensus, but It still amazes me how such a simple concept can be so confusing to some folks.

By the way, how does a robin get....eerrrr, never mind
