Making a video is just not my cup-a-tea....nor is shooting for that matter.....

Anyhow, it was fun nonetheless. :D

29 consecutive shots with the
Uberti Winchester 73 @ 200 yards
Reloder 7 powder
Accurate Mold's 43-214A


If you decide to watch, make sure you turn on the ""CC" (closed caption). I tried to be funny, but failed at pretty much all of it....lol

Thanks Sarge

I have been working on a large target (much like the one in the video) with POA marks from 25 yards to 250 yards with the scope zeroed in at 200 yards of which I will eventually make from ply-wood.

Because of the large elevation adjustments, I elected to have the scope set for 200 yards where the "target" is small viewed in the 6x scope, thus no elevation adjustment. The largest elevation adjustments would be at a "larger" target as viewed in the 6x scope, which would be 100 yards at 16ish inches low for factory super-x ammo. The 250 yard shot would actually be the largest adjustment at 22ish inches high but I do not plan on "hunting" at that distance. The furthest distance on the land I would be hunting is 230 yards in the far small corner of a field. The shooting range I have available is only 250 yards (another at 265).

The marks will be set for my handloads at 1,350fps with a 220gr lead bullet.

The following is set by Winchester for their 200gr JSP Super-X hunting ammo at only 1,190fps advertised.

POA set for 200 yards

Elevation Adjustment Required
25 yds/-5.92"
50 yds/-11.17"
75 yds/-14.61"
100 yds/-16.11"
125 yds/15.56"
150 yds/-12.82"
175 yds/-7.79"
200 yds/ 0
225 yds/+9.62"
250 yds/+22.23"

My numbers, so far, are not much different for my 220gr lead bullets at 1,300fps (1,350fps as tested).

It gives me something to do, it's a hobby!!! :)
