    Alliance Black MZ?

    Awhile back Alliant offered powder called Black MZ. I used it and found it to be a pretty good alternative to the real stuff. Plus it was 9.95 a lb. Alliant discontinued it due to low sales, which I found puzzling so I called and they confirmed it. I still have a couple of lbs, I use it...

    Long range

    Agree, I use 12x50 binoculars. What really helps is I make my own shot-n-see targets. very cost effective considering what they want at the sporting goods store.

    I just realized 1000 yards is over a half mile! Holy cow that is LONG RANGE! Tomorrow I am going to set my target at 1000 yards and see if I can even see it, should be fun.

    Long range

    I understand 100 is not really long rang, but it is as far as I care to attempt a kill shot. 1000 yards? Just how big is the target and how can you even see it ? I would need optics after 300.

    Thanks all, I now know I will not be again shooting 100 grains of 3f anytime soon. My shoulder is not as young as it used to be!

    Long range

    After reading posts about long range shooting, I thought I would give it a try. This a 3 shot group at 100 yards. Found it most difficult to see the target. Shooting my .54 cap hawken, GM barrel, with 100 grains gfafs 3f, .018 patch, 530 ball. Open sights, not great but I did hit the paper.
