L PO8 first target

I shoot at least two 40 shot BPCR Silhouette matches per month using either a 45-70 or 45-90 pushing a 540 grain lead bullet. Recoil is very manageable and by the end of the match, I am no worse off that when I started. My go to hunting rifle is a left-hand Hawkin 50 cal percussion half-stock. I have shot four bull elk and many cow elk with it along with several mule deer and one black bear. Black powder, lead projectiles, and open sights can be an awesome experience.
