Why does your factory test target say 450/400 3"?

Good question. I screwed up and put up the wrong target. At first I thought it was an error on their part but I'm the one that screwed up here is the correct target!

Gents, been a while since I posted, but I thought some of you might like to see the case I had made for my Verney from Americase. Triple locks and hard aluminum and Leathersmith Henry Flores is making me a cover out of my Buffalo hide. Here you go:

Jorge,
just as well you got it made from aluminium..........baggage handlers are not known for their kindness to other peoples property!
Very secure that's for sure. Where do your cleaning rods, solvent, oil etc go, are they separate or have I missed something

93; There are two places, where the knife and sling are that can be used to carry a variety of patches, solvents, etc. As to the rod, I only use one piece and they go with my other guns in a long case. That or I use a boresnake. j
