Today was it. I woke up fully refreshed, feeling good, knee didn't hurt at all, son was a VERY good boy getting out himself to school, and I had time to play. Best thing was, that very addictive online game that grabs me sometimes was offline...gee darn.
LOAD 'EM UP!
Out the door I went, to see how my vz-58 would handle some good cast boolits at 50 yards. I chose 50 as a good starting point, plus the longer range was busy. So the 75 yards sight in range was ALL mine!
First, to change to a 50 yard zero with the EOTech. No problem.
Now, many of you are used to seeing this type of target in my posts, generic representative posted here...

NOT TODAY!
Here was sight in with jacketed bullets. Zombie hunter, baby!

Great 3 round sight in group, but zombies can't be killed with neck shots...yes, that's 3 rounds!

That's better. Uh oh, ran out of zombie targets, what next? Warsaw Pact soldier targets from Finland! Yes, I do realize how awkward this was for my former Warsaw Pact rifle...I'll let the targets do the talking. Time for CAST!

Switch, to the original charging soldier target! This is a very narrow target at 50 yards, the head is the same size as the dot on the EOTech.
