30-30 Video

Post by Rifleman »

I wanted to get more active on the site, but have no topic to discuss, so I have a video.

300 Yard 30-30 Confirmation

I had missed with my last few 400 yard shots and was confirming my windage was correct at 400 yards. I would think windage is perfect.

I took those shots off a fence using a Winchester 94ae with a BSA Deerhunter scope. The load is using a 150gr FMJ, loaded singly directly into the chamber.

Tomorrow I'll try 400 again, this time I'll concentrate on the fundamentals.
Oh, and instead of using the round 7 inch target, I'll use the 8 inch square target... if this 7 inch target had corners, I'd have hit it! ;)

I took 2 shots...

Win94ae, 400 Yards, 8 Inch Target

I concentrated on wind estimation and compensation; it being a bit breezy with variable direction, it was a bit tricky. But I did good windage wise with both shots.

Next time It'll be a "one shot, one kill."

Thanks for the compliments!

Looked at some of your other videos.

Dang, you are a shooter.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Thank you! I try to be as proficient as possible with all the firearms I own. I still need more practice with my 1911 and 44 New Model Army replica.

Thanks again!

Fake video. Everybody knows 30-30 stops at 100 yards. :mrgreen:
Very nice. I can only hope to aspire to that!

Thanks again everyone!

Good thing I started shooting it beyond 200 yards before people told me it was impossible. ;)
