(stating the obvious that's about visualising the elevation       you need for subsonic rounds at those ranges - which at 100m is quite a       lot of degrees - visibly pointed high above the horizon)              ------------------------------              I've won no-money bets that I could put holes in a soda can at 100 yards       with a pistol. The sound and jump is proof if you can't see it. At 75 yards       I could pick which end to hit. And I'm not nearly the best shot in the club.              These are sights for long range black powder target shooting at similar to       pistol velocities, though with much heavier bullets. Mine is marked for up       to 2.5 inches elevation for the medium ranges.       https://www.cimarron-firearms.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?p=       &q=Sights+for+45-70              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
