Chapter 74 Extreme Performance
In fact, if the effective range of the Minee rifle alone, the effective range of this gun should be within 400 to 500 meters, which can maintain enough power and accuracy, but it is not easy for the shooter to easily hit a single individual target at this distance, even Liu Wang The shooting is very good, and it is also very difficult to hit such a long distance target when there has never been special training.
After all, even if Liu Wang and others often trained, the farthest shooting target was only within 100 steps. They never wanted to aim at the target 300 meters away, so it was normal not to hit the target 300 meters away.
This situation made everyone a little disappointed, but even if they can't hit targets 300 steps away, this new huskling gun is still very powerful for them, which can double their shooting distance at once, which is enough to take advantage of them on the battlefield.
But Yu Xiaotian still didn't let Liu Wang stop and said to everyone, "Don't be in a hurry to make a conclusion. If Liu Wang can't hit a target 300 steps away, it doesn't mean that this kind of gun can't work!
I can guarantee with my head that the effective range of this gun is much farther than you think! It is said that it is 300 steps, even if it is 400 steps, as long as it is hit by it, it will still return to the west!
If it doesn't come from my estimate, the range of this * should be about 500 steps. What I'm saying is that you can be more sure to hit the target!
Even if it is 600 steps away, it is estimated that the projectile fired by this kind of gun can kill people as long as it hits the key point of people!
Get a table and chair for Liu Wang and prepare a sandbag! Keep trying!"
Some people don't believe Yu Xiaotian's words. They can hit people 400 steps away. What's the point of this? You should know that the six-pounder cannon and twelve-pounder guns they are using now, not include the twelve-pound long guns, and the effective range at sea is also stipulated to be within 400 steps. When on land, they can only hit the shells at a distance of two miles away, which is already quite terrible. Even the Hongyi cannons used by the Ming military on land may not be able to hit so far.
And Yu Xiaotian said that this kind of* can kill people 600 steps away, but they really don't believe it.
While someone was looking for tables and chairs and preparing sandbags, Yu Xiaotian simply found a pile of boards to prove his words, ran 500 steps away, arranged the boards densely, and erected them into a wooden wall. This goal is big enough, 500 steps away, about a miles away, although not I can guarantee that I can accurately hit the target the size of the human body, but there should be no problem to hit this wooden wall.
After a while, everything was ready. Someone brought a thick wooden table and a chair, and a small sandbag was also placed on the table. Yu Xiaotian asked Liu Wang to fill it again, then sat on the chair, put the gun on the sandbag of the table, and carried out a targeted shooting.
Because of the structural problems of * in this era, * must be loaded standing, so * hands mostly use standing shooting, that is, at most, using a semi-squat shooting method. What's more, * Because of the accuracy of the limited range, it is necessary to rely on the platoon gun shooting to ensure the lethality of *, and shoot with dense bullets to kill enemy personnel. Relying on shooting is not taken seriously.
However, the stability of relying on shooting is unmatched by other shooting methods. Just now, because Liu Wang used the standing shooting method, it is difficult to effectively aim at the target at a long distance, so if he wants to shoot accurately 300 meters away, even with a later sniper rifle, It takes a long time of training, not to mention the adoption of standing and unsupported shooting.
Therefore, Yu Xiaotian asked Liu Wang to shoot in a sitting position, which can effectively improve the shooting accuracy. If you aim carefully, you should still be able to hit a static target 300 meters away.
Liu Wang had calmed down at this time and tried to adjust his state. According to Yu Xiaotian's guidance, he put the gun on the sandbag and began to aim carefully again.
With a crisp gunshot, everyone took out their own binoculars and began to observe the humanoid target 300 meters away.
Soon a target soldier appeared in the distance. After observing the target, he waved a small green flag, and everyone immediately marveled.
The green flag represents the shooter's target, which means that Liu Wang's gun still hit the target 300 meters away, and everyone was even more surprised.
The soldier who reported the target ran back breathlessly and carried the target back. Everyone immediately surrounded and began to check the target sent.
On this humanoid target, there is a not too big bullet hole. Migne's bullet hit the position below the left shoulder of the target, which is some distance from the ten-ring white point in the center.
However, although he failed to hit the ten rings, everyone was very satisfied that he could hit this target 300 meters away, which shows that Liu Wang is indeed quite talented. In a short time, he basically mastered the performance of this new gun. After changing to relying on shooting, the accuracy immediately It has improved a lot.
After amazement, they found that after the bullet hit the wooden target 300 meters away, it still effectively penetrated the wooden target. According to the target, although the bullet failed to penetrate the second wooden target, it was still deeply embedded in the board and almost penetrated it. The second wooden target.
Everyone exclaimed again. 300 steps away, this new gun is actually so powerful. It can still effectively penetrate ordinary iron armor at this distance, not to say, and the shell is still quite powerful at this distance. At this time, they began to believe Yu Xiaotian's words.
The power, accuracy and range of this new gun is not twice as much as that of the old-fashioned huskling gun. After adding these engravings to the gun, the performance of this gun can be said to be a radical improvement compared with the performance of the smooth-fire gun.
Meng Fei exclaimed again: "My God! What is this! Why is it so awesome! I didn't dare to think that * can be so sharp. If the officers and soldiers have this thing, they can't fight this battle in the future! If you can't see people, you will be beaten to death!
Fortunately, this thing is ours. I don't want to meet such a powerful guy in my life. Who are we afraid of when we have this guy in the future? How many of his grandmothers will come here? As long as we have this thing, we are still afraid of them! You can cut them down one by one from afar!
By the way, isn't Jiannu powerful? Aren't they invincible? Against our thing, it's still a dead word! ......”
Others also nodded and said that everyone's faces were shocked and excited. One by one, they couldn't put them down with these three new guns.
Yu Xiaotian also personally took a new gun and started to load it. Then Meng Fei used a shot. Liu Tong also took the one he just used from Liu Wang. All three of them raised their guns and shot a round at the wooden wall 500 steps away, and then loaded them and shot at the target 100 steps away. .
After a few shots, the target reported that all three of them hit the 100-meter humanoid target, all of which penetrated three layers of wooden boards, but only one bullet hit an eight ring, and the other two hit the lower abdomen of the humanoid target, and one shot hit the shoulder of the humanoid target.
Although their shooting accuracy is not as good as Liu Wang, after all, they are all people who play with guns for a long time, and their accuracy is not bad. In the past, if they were allowed to shoot targets more than 100 steps away with old smoothbore lance guns, none of the three of them dared to say that they could hit it, but today they use this new gun, but Easily hit the target.
Everyone was very happy and put down their guns and walked towards the wooden wall 500 steps away.
After they walked to the front of the board wall, they began to find bullet holes on the board wall. After some inspection, they only found two bullet holes on the board. I don't know who hit the other one. At this time, the son's bullet flew to nowhere.
Yu Xiaotian felt that there was one of the two bullet holes in the target. After careful observation, he felt that the effective range of this newly built Mines rifle could only reach so far. At this distance, the Mine bullet still had a certain amount of energy to kill and injuring people, but the penetration power had been very reduced. More than that, neither warhead has effectively penetrated the board, but is deeply embedded in the board. Such power can only be slightly lethal to unprotected targets.
If the other party wears iron armor, it is estimated that the iron armor can't be penetrated at this distance, but the leather armor can still barely penetrate, but after penetrating the leather armor, the killing of people has been reduced to a low level. As for the unprotected living target, after being shot, unless it is a critical part, no In that case, it can only be injured.
If you want to hit a single human-sized target at this distance, the requirements for the shooter are quite high. Even modern rifles in later generations, it is difficult to effectively hit the target at this distance. The shooter has to go through a long time of training to improve the hit rate, and even add a scope to assist aiming. Accurate * degree.
And now this new tlint line rifle still uses *, and the accuracy of the projectile is certainly not as good as the accuracy of the bullet warhead of later generations. At this distance, it is basically not considered to accurately shoot targets the size of the human body.
However, if you use relying on shooting, there is still a high probability that the superior shooter can effectively hit a target of about 300 meters. If the character explodes, it may even hit a living target of about 400 meters.
So far, even if the first test firing of the new gun is almost over, everyone is still not satisfied, and they still take turns to test these three new guns.
