Default took the 1903 mix breed out for a spin....
1903 remington / 1903a3 springfield stock w/timney sportsman trigger set to -1lb. old lyman peep sight

ammo used is handrolled;remington brass,180gr castlead bullets w/gas checks,15gr.Alliant herco powder...these are very quiet w/no recoil,chronograph @ 1847fps

shooting from deck rail using winchester beanbag rest while sitting upright on 5 gal. bucket

first two shots fired was low....so i took the sight up a couple of clicks & out of 5 shots this was the best i could do
