@LoganRoberson LEE molds are good enough to make useable bullets

suggest you have a look at this guys ladder sights on his Marlin
Marlin 45-70 Cowboy

Shot my trapdoor on the trentham range back in the 80s at 800 yards the guys in the butts heard fall of shot but no idea where. Supposedly if you saw the smoke you had enough time to start running before the bullet arrived.
This is her with the sights set for 1000 yards you have absolutly no cheek weld.
Bugger photos upside down. I just cant figure out the auto rotate shit.
