Range Report on 45/70 Marlin XLR
« on: January 27, 2007, 09:30:16 AM »
Shot my XLR for the first time today. Trapdoor loads--300 gr. Recoil was mild and with open sights from a rest I strung the shots together at 50 yards. I had to shoot with my glasses off so the the sights were clear-target was fuzzy. Very accurate rifle. With these loads I need a lower front sight. Does anyone know how to go about getting one?? It was smack on for windage.
Thanks
