I’m not really challenging anyone but have anyone here tried duplicating his ace of spades group?  [/url] ![]() here was my attempt today albeit with my Bisley 480. The buffalo target was shot with the same ammo and distance.  [/url] This particular load is 10.7 grains of HS6 and a 330 grain 477640 gas checked bullet from a mold group buy. |

I read that as 6 shots, 60 yards at first and was floored. The caption really helped clarify!
I used to take incomplete card decks to use as targets: bamboo skewer split at the top just far enough to hold the card, skewer stuck in the ground. I think I've still got some of them around that I used as bookmarks.

Interesting ! Can I use one of the spades in the garage ? Next time I pull out the 5.5" NM FT 44spec out will see what I can do.

In the words of Maxwell Smart..."Missed it by that much!" 4+1 @ 12 yards, 454 Casull.  |

I tried something like it with my Model 29-2 a few months ago.  IIRC, the loads were 240-grain American Eagle JHP at 1,250 fps, a 240-grain cast handload over 7 grains of 231, and the HSM 240-grain SWC cowboy load at 1,150 fps. Okie John |

I have 4 of those decks in my Smile.Amazon cart. If you guys want, I'll photocopy the 4 Ace of Spades cards onto one sheet and mail them to you so you can make more copies for this challenge. Could be fun to do for the group here!
Send me a pm if you want a copy. I'll order the cards today.
