Five shots 65 yards with my Hawken flintlock. Got it just like I want it windage and elevation wise!

That 5 shot group of yours looks just like three of my shots on that target. Then just move two more holes high an inch or so. Lol
Good shooting!

I always thought accuracy was hitting the mark. The mark looks untouched to me.

Nice group though. :thumb:

5 shots in virtually one hole at 65 yds with a flintlock? I would say that's hitting the mark and then some,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
