Put together this short video of me at the range shooting my Savage 340 in 30-30 at 200 yards. Watch it in HD.
Savege 340, 30-30 Winchester. Cast lead bullets at 200 yards. YouTube
The really cool part, that made me spend the time making a video, is the "trails" that the bullets leave as the remaining bullet lube gets slung off the bullet in flight. I was never aware how visible it was until I actually videoed myself shooting it.
IIRC this phenomenon was common during the black powder days and the motivation for inventing tracer rounds when smokeless came on the scene.
Hope you all enjoy it. I thought we had a dedicated video section here, but I can't find it.
