Shooting Artillery Luger at 200 yards
Well here are the results:
Artillery Luger with stock at 200 yards.
Bench rest resting gun on jacket .115 grain Winchester FMJ.
I shot a total of 9 FIVE shot groups with rear sight settings
at 200 and 300 meters.
Target size: 2' wide by 3 1/2' high which is too small.
Group Hits Group Size Rear Sight Setting
1 --- 4 --- 29" --- ?
2 --- 3 --- 27.25 --- ?
3 --- 4 --- 15.5 --- 300meters
4 --- 4 --- 27 --- 300
5 --- 3 --- 14.5 --- 200
6 --- 3 --- 25 --- 300
7 --- 4 --- 11.5 --- 300
8 --- 4 --- 16 --- 200
9 --- 3 --- 19.5 --- 200
Total of 32 hits out of 45 shots
Rear sight setting at 200 meters : Average of 5" below the
point of aim.
Rear sight setting at 300 meters: Average of 10.5" above
the point of aim.
Average difference between 200m and 300m settings: 15.5".
Groups size average:
The 4 three hit groups: 21.6"
the 5 four hit groups: 19.8"
In conclusion, I was not able to shoot one group where all
5 shots hit the target.Therefore I will try again with a larger
target.
I would not want to be 200 yards from someone shooting
at me with a stocked Artillery Luger.
