Went to the outdoor rifle range to shoot the other day, and after blasting off some rounds (the most fun being the 1895 Winchester in .405 and the Remington 760), we decided to shoot pistols at long range. I guess it was Smith day since I had my 6.5" Model 29 loaded with 240grain SJHPs and my buddy had a 4" Model 58 and 6" Model 610. Using sandbags and a rest I was able to put 5 of 6 shots on a 18" x 18" target at 100 yards, no grouping per se, but all fell to the right of or below the bullseye. My buddy got most of the 10mm on paper, but none of the .41 magnums I'm assuming because of the 58's fixed sights and shorter bbl. I was wondering if anyone else has done this before on a serious level (not just for S&Gs like I was), that is 100+ yard open sight pistol from a benchrest. It was really fun and I would like to hear some other people's recommendations on loads for .44 magnum and 10mm or other calibers that they've tried. I'm not interested in mounting a scope but I was wondering if there are any tricks to shooting open sights at the longer ranges.
