Subject: Re: Any long range shooters out there? by Ultraman on 2014/6/3 23:29:43 That is a good shot Wayne....what were you shooting with? I almost bought a Shilo Quigley 1874 Sharps reproduction rifle awhile back.... .45-70 $3K..... Would love to have it and find a place to shoot it. One of my favorite movies of all time. The same rifle in a .50-90 configuration was what Billy Dixon killed and Indian with at 1538 yards at Adobe Walls Battle in 1874. Modern testing of the Sharps rifle in the same calibar when mounted in a gun carrier and tracked with radar fired a 675 grain bullet 3600 yards down range......oh yeah....very cool! |
