Hey from galveston texas!!

* update ... At the moment I'm getting about 1" -1.5" high at 25 and right on at 50 yards. But 100 yards I'm not even hitting paper. So realistically I'm good for hunting when my farthest hunting shot will be 50 yards in the woods. I'm gonna try a different range later that has 75 yards so I...

Thanks for the help guys

Phil thanks for the info! I know I have some trial amd error to do . I was mainly worried about filing to much off front site and possibly not achieving the zero i want. But I did order a old school hawken adjustable site and another front site just In case

I'm thinking the 75 yard zero gives the fattest trajectory for shooting out to a 100 yards.

Wow!! That's some good info right there. At the range I been going too. It has 25 yard, 50, and 100 yard. I will probably get a chance to go tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

So I recently been working on working up a load and zeroing my gpr in .54. And at first my point of impact was extremely low at 25 yards. So I filed down the front sight and it took quite a bit of filing to get the poi up. But right now with 90grn 2fg goex and .530 roundball and .015 pillow...

Thanks Boone for the help. You have a great looking rifle there. And my apologies for the off topic post. But hey free bump!!

I just got a .54 gpr and will be going to the range mon. To find a good hunting load. Would you have used that land as well for hunting?

Thanks ended up ordering the same hawken sight as Andy. Not 100% sure if I'm going to be filing the very bottom of site base or the bottom corners. But I'm sure I can figure it out. Thanks for yalls help

So you were able to get the 3/8ths to fit? With some filing to the sight

Nameless hunter do you happen to have a model number on that site by marbles?

Thanks. Do yall recommend any sight for the rear on theyman great plains. Anybody tried the aml 16 sight?

Ok so I haven't got to take my new to me lyman great plains rifle to range yet but I will Monday. But my question is if I wanted to change my rear sight to an adjustable rear sight like the elevated ones. They mostly seem to be 3/8ths . But lyman has the great plains at .340" will the 3/8th...

Thanks

Nice what kind of accuracy are you getting and how far can you effectively shoot at?

Alright my first BP rifle e in today bought from a fellow forum member. Lyman great plain rifle .54. I got 10# of ffg goex and waiting on caps to be delivered Friday and I should be good to go on working up a accurate load for hunting. I may replace the rear fixed sight for a adjustable sight...
