wana play poker?? - Kurt - 01-10-2013

Wink Finally had a chance to work with the .44-77 getting the front sight in place and filed down for a 100 yard zero and the Lawrence rear sight notch filed open a little more so I can pick up the front blade.
Today was a good day for this with drizzling rain and dark heavy overcast day that I had the range to myself to get this done.

A while back Rick Mulhern nailed the Ace of spades I think at 100 yds with almost a dead center hole so with my last two rounds I had I got out the ace of hearts and tried to call his shot and raise him one Dodgy but didn't get the right cards Smile
Never was good a poker Confused

But anyway this rifle is going to be a good shooter. But I do need to get rid of the 45 degree wall at the chamber end.

Those shots at the upper left was when I was centering the barrel sights and I didn't have but two of the 720 grainers but you can see where those two went!
