Shooting Black Powder at Night.


Sedalia Dave

Recommended Posts

If you ever have the chance to participate in a night shoot. DO IT. If you don't shoot real BP, find a way to do so. Then get it on film.

 

Friend filmed me on two stages. First one was right at twilight and the second well after the sun set. 

 

 

 

Rifle was my 24" barreled 66 in 44-40, Pistols were Ruger Vaqueros, and my 87 shotgun. All rounds including SG were Black Dawg Cartridge Company loads. Not sure of the powder but I am sure the cases were full. 

 

In a couple weeks I'll have access to pictures and more video that Big Old Brads lovely Daughter took. She got a picture of my hand totally obscured by the flames right after the bullet left the barrel.

@Sedalia Dave,

You've got me Snip-it_1653827765474.jpg.3e8e1eb0aa538f74e0e918bc56cc1b71.jpg'd. ;)

 

The BIG question though is whether you hit any of the targets in the dark? :P:D

 

Down the road I would like to acquire a pair of these: :wub:

Everyone who shot in our night blackpowder shoots at the Revenge got a pin. Utah Bob and I did a bunch of them over the years.

Try wizardpins.com 

I’m not sure of their pricing but I heard they’re reliable from a friend.
