Average Shot Range in East Cape SA

“230ish”? Are you a soul so brave as to only take shots so far as you can well estimate with the naked eye?
Well done. My taste in vintage rifles may be just a little bit different, but I have a soft spot for the lever guns. Hopefully I can take my 1895 on a future trip.

My PH said the exact range when I shot. That was 3 years ago. It was at least 230, and I think a bit more - 230ish. It was a trickier shot than it sounds. It was in the open, the wind was freaking screaming, and it was my smallest critter - a springbok.

I have an 1895... I have pondered mine as well.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
