Range Report Elmer keiths 45 and Skeeters 45 results.
Great gun!! Now for the shootout range battle between Elmer and Skeeter's S&W 45 L Colts !!
Well Here are the targets for Elmers Pre 26 4 inch in 45 Colt and Skeeters Model 25
4 inch in 45 Colt. Now for the results between Elmer and Skeeter's S&W 45 Colts. Both guns did Extremely well, I had to measure the groups with a Dial Caliper and and a Magnifier the results between the two was .030 which is the thickness of a piece of card stock. So it is basically a Tie.
Enjoy the pictures I enjoyed the shooting.
The shooting was done on my inside Range off a sand bag rest at 25 feet.

Thanks for sharing!
You know, Elmer's might have been tested for strength, way back when, with some of the loads he concocted!

Very cool. I'd love to see a photo of your indoor range. The 45 Colt is one of my favorite calibers.

I imagine Elmer and Skeeter are comparing the targets and guns over a good bottle of sour mash.
