Ned's Shooting Thread

Shot some .45 acp in the Blackhawk, not shooting well with HP; ball on the other hand shoots to point of aim.
The front sight is hard to see, I painted it today.
Might have to try some 45 long cold in it tomorrow :uhm:

Were you shooting it in your pistol? Shooting at it? using it to pull the trigger?
How do you mount a front sight on a thread?
Wouldn't dye work better than paint on it?

At least you didn't say "I told you sew"
Quit needling Ned, its his yarn, let him tell it and stop trying to stitch him up or he will go sit in the corner and silk.
Hey, you trying to put Ned's Thread on a Spool?

I saw that play as a teen, the Dad of two of my friends was a straight laced no nonsense type that never said more than hello and looked stern----
scary sorta.
He played the Roosevelt character in the locally done production. Meaning running around on stage yelling charge.
I never could look at the guy again without snickering.

Nothing happened.
Move real close and see where it goes then move back in stages, maybe it is something like the front sight is too tall or your pushing the gun with your trigger pull.
Could be it likes 250 gr HP's better than 230 gr HP's.
I shot at a spot on a log and found it was hitting a little left, so I moved the sight and it seemed better.
I need to .45 acp again and see.
Yellow flies are horrible out in the woods and worse in the swampy areas.
Chiggers, ticks, several kinds of mosquitoes, deer flies, yellow flies, and several kinds of wasps, and those ground dwelling yellow jackets. Then there's rattlers, copperheads, and cottonmouth snakes! :silly: I love the South!
Have fun with the .45ACP cylinder. New gun, so you two got to get acquainted with one another!

You could have just moved the log :tooth:
Funny how same make/model/caliber/bbl length will prefer different loads.

Shot well enough, it is not a tgt handgun, but, center mass it will do the job.
And pink tipped bullets bust open zombie jugs.
The Blackhawk shot real well after the sight adjustment.
Water was down, none running over the forest road. As a result, some jack wagon got out there and made a fire in this heat and burned my
section of log I used as a tgt stand.
Left an empty wiskey bottle and some MRE related trash, I cleaned it up.
Yellow flies were still a pain.
Good to hear the Blackhawk is limbering up and shooting good groups. :up:
Sorry to hear about the combustion of the target stand by the idiot. Maybe he was trying to smoke out the yellow flies with waterlogged wood?
Which reminds me of something I did way back when to keep people away from one of my favorite fishing spots. I got three BIG rubber snakes that looked like copperheads and placed one under the log section I used as a seat, and tied the other two in bushes to left and right of the log seat. They looked real enough that I checked to make sure before I sat down! :silly: :tooth:

Sounds like a drunk Marine messed up your shootin area!

I have that same gun in stainless and had it at the SE shoot. I thought for sure you'd have shot it.
