Hello guys. Well, I own a Henry Big Boy 45 Colt. Its a pretty good shooter, no complaints whatsoever. I want do do some target shooting with it, since there is no silhouette facilities around my area. It will have either a Malcolm 3x scope or skinner express sights. I would prefer scope because i dont have the vision to shoot with peeps anymore. Cant do the 500 yards w iron sights like a good Marine no more. I have access to a 300 yard range. Would it be possible to shoot targets on that distance using +p ammo?
