Targets #1 thru #6 Were Shot Using Open Sights And A $20.00 CVA Bobcat With A Badly Rust Pitted barrel




I believe I can harvest a deer out to 75 yards with this clunker. I think the Bobcat behaved pretty well with some heavy lead.
The next targets were shot using a Thompson Center Renegade with a .50 Cal. 21 inch Green Mountain Long Range Hunter Barrel and Open Sights





This target (#13) was shot using Pyrodex loose. There was a delayed ignition of the powder on every shot. I didn't know there would be a problem using Pyrodex loose and #11 caps in a sidelock.

The last target (#15) was shot using the bullet that comes with the yellow sabot in the Thompson Center Shockwave package. The yellow sabot was replaced with a Thompson Center Mag Express sabot.
It looks like 75 yards is about as far as the Renegade will cleanly harvest a deer with open sights. That's MY limmit though I'm sure.
