Originally, in order to improve the power, the flintlock pistol produced by the sea wolf increased the caliber compared with the bird gun commonly used by the Ming army, increased the weight of the projectile, and increased the power of the flintlock pistol, but it caused the firing range to be relatively shortened.

However, the effect of this is limited, and the range is still not advantageous when compared with qualified small-caliber birds.

So there is a little bit of a whisper about this soldier, but in terms of power, the sea wolf's flintlock pistol is still quite powerful, within fifty steps, it can basically penetrate the iron armor, and seventy steps can also penetrate the leather armor, and even at a hundred paces, it has a certain lethality, which can kill and injure unprotected enemies, but the accuracy is already very miserable, even the best marksman, with the best flintlock pistol, can not guarantee that one out of ten shots can accurately hit a target the size of a human target a hundred steps away.

The qualified bird guns used by the Ming army can sometimes hit targets more accurately than seventy paces away, which is a little stronger than the flintlock pistol of the sea wolf, but the power is a little insufficient, and it can only kill and injure some unprotected targets, and the thick leather armor can't penetrate it, let alone the iron armor.

As for the Ming army's most three-eyed guns, not to mention, the effective range is only twenty or thirty paces, and there is no aiming function, can only rely on the shooter's rough aiming, the probability of hitting the target is very low, basically most of the guns fired, I don't know where to fly, can only deal with large-scale dense enemy groups, play a certain effect.

Yu Xiaotian didn't explain anything to Meng Fei, but said: "I can tell you that although this projectile is much heavier, it can definitely hit much farther and more accurately than the round gun you used before!" Just look at it first, and I'll tell you what you're up to! ”

At this time, at 50 meters, 70 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters, and even 300 meters on the shooting range, human-shaped targets were erected, and a dot was drawn on the humanoid heart of the target with white ash, and a dot was also drawn on the head.

Yu Xiaotian saw that Liu Wang was ready to shoot, he knew that Liu Wang was a fanatical shooting enthusiast, as long as he was idle and had nothing to do, he would run to practice the gun, and sometimes at night he had to hold his special flintlock pistol with very good accuracy, practice aiming at the lights, and the kung fu paid off, Liu Wang's shooting level, among the sea wolves, definitely belonged to the best, when using the flintlock pistol specially built for him, this guy had created a super good record of 100 meters away, four out of ten.

Even among the sea wolf soldiers, no one has surpassed his record, so Liu Wang is actually a qualified sniper, but it's a pity that he uses a smoothbore gun, and the effective range is too short, otherwise it will be quite powerful.

"Hit the fifty-step target first, and then check the gun! By the way, how thick is the target? Yu Xiaotian said to Liu Wang, and then asked the soldier who was in charge of setting the target.

"The target is set up in three layers of wooden handles according to the instructions of the big master, and each layer of wooden targets is half an inch thick, all of which are made of pine planks! Three inches in between! The soldier in charge of setting the target quickly replied.

Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "It's almost, try it!" ”

As soon as Meng Fei and Fang An heard this, they came to their senses, although the flintlock pistol they used was powerful, but fifty steps could only penetrate two layers of wooden targets, and the wooden targets could not be spaced too apart, basically they had to be next to each other, but today Yu Xiaotian set up three layers of wooden targets fifty steps away, and there were three inches between them, which was a bit hanging, this flintlock pistol didn't seem to have much charge, and the warhead was a little heavier, but could it penetrate so many layers of wooden targets?

"Obey the order, first hit the target in fifty steps!" Liu Wang answered loudly.

After finishing speaking, he immediately picked up the gun, separated his feet, one in front of the other, stood steadily, put the butt firmly on the shoulder socket, obtained a stable fulcrum, stretched forward with his left hand, supported the lower part of the gun, and held the butt of the gun with his right hand and put his index finger on the trigger, opening the safety.

Everyone stopped talking to each other and calmly looked at the target fifty paces away.

Liu Wang adjusted his breathing, relaxed his right hand slightly, and began to aim at the target through the door and crosshair on the barrel, until he felt completely sure, and then gently pulled the trigger.

Hearing the sound of a gunshot, a cloud of white smoke rose from the muzzle of the gun, and everyone saw that some sawdust immediately burst out of the target fifty paces away, and the sharp-eyed people immediately saw a hole appear on the left edge of the white dot in the heart of the target.

"Beautiful! Hit the bull's-eye! Brother Liu's marksmanship is really clever! Awesome, awesome! Someone immediately patted Liu Wang's ass.

Liu Wang put down the gun, not very satisfied with this shot, and said: "It's pretty much the same, the first time I used this gun, I couldn't hit the center of the position, so it can't be considered good!" This gun doesn't seem to be able to aim low, and it seems to have a higher trajectory than the gun I used before! The recoil seems to be a little bigger, too! But it doesn't matter, adjust it, the next shot should be more accurate! ”

Of course, Yu Xiaotian knew what Lu Dao was for, Liu Wang still aimed according to the old habit, but he didn't know that the muzzle velocity of the rifled gun was much higher, and the trajectory was much lower and straighter, he aimed according to the old habit, and it would definitely hit a little higher, which was not obvious at a distance of 50 meters, and if it was pulled away to 100 meters, it would be more obvious, and even the possibility of missing the target was there.

At this time, the target watcher first shook a small white flag from the bunker behind the target, prompting him to stand up and stop shooting, and after waiting for a while, the target watcher stood up, stretched out his head to look at the target, and immediately shouted: "Nine rings!" Drop point on the top left! Pierced! Wear all three layers of wooden handles! ”

Meng Fei jumped up and immediately exclaimed, "Wow! It's really penetrated! Awesome! Ha Lu Ha! Even if you put on three layers of armor, you can beat him to death in fifty steps! ”

Liu Wang then loaded the bullet and shot a fifty-step target again, after he adjusted this shot, the accuracy was better, it was directly ten rings, and the white dot with a large bowl mouth in the middle belonged to the ten rings of the ten rings, and it was very accurate.

The person who reported the target immediately shouted: "Ten rings are in the middle, absolutely ten rings!" Break it all! ”

Liu Wang was more satisfied this time, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded: "This time it's about the same, I lowered the muzzle of the gun a little bit, and it really hit!" This gun is very accurate, and it's a little more accurate than my best gun! ”

But other people are concerned about the power of this gun at this time, because fifty steps to hit the target, for many people, the difficulty is not great, there are thirty percent of musketeers in the barracks can almost achieve a certain probability of hitting the bull's-eye, and they are surprised that the power of this gun, fifty steps away, can easily penetrate three layers of wooden rake, this is not the kind of flintlock pistol they commonly use can do, and it is also gun penetration, indicating that the penetrating power of this gun is more than that.

"Don't try the seventy-step one, just try the one-hundred-step target!" Yu Xiaotian was quite confident in Liu Wang's shooting level, seventy steps was not difficult for him, and he deliberately wanted Liu Wang to experience the real advantages of this rifled gun.

Liu Wang agreed, so he immediately picked up the gun, began to aim at the target a hundred paces away, calmly adjusted his attitude, and pulled the trigger on the aiming point.

Usually, Liu Wang often trains to shoot at targets 100 meters away, but it is a smoothbore gun, even if it is a smoothbore gun with good accuracy, at a distance of 100 meters, if you want to hit a target the size of a human body, you have to use a lot of luck, and Liu Wang once created a record of four out of ten, which is already a big explosion of character when using a smoothbore gun.

Today, Liu Wang switched to this rifled gun, and it stands to reason that there is no big problem in dealing with targets at a distance of 100 meters.

After hearing a bang, everyone looked at the target 100 meters away, and some people began to take out a monocular to observe, but then the target reporter 100 meters away stood up, and shouted loudly after looking at the target: "Hit the target!" Hit the head! All three layers of targets are penetrated! ”

After hearing this, everyone suddenly cheered, and praised Liu Wang here, saying that Liu Wang played well, and hit the head of the humanoid target a hundred steps away from such a long distance, which was really powerful, and more importantly, they heard the scream of the target reporter, a hundred steps away, this gun was actually stunned or pierced the three-layer wooden target, indicating that the power of this gun is really much beyond the flintlock pistol they used before, if it is replaced by the kind of flintlock pistol they commonly use, even if it is a big explosion of character, hitting the target a hundred steps away, At most, it is good to only be able to penetrate one layer of wooden targets, and this distance can penetrate a layer of wooden targets, which is enough to ensure that the target wearing leather armor is shot.

However, this spear actually penetrated three layers of wooden rakes at once from a hundred paces away, which shows that even if the enemy wears two or three layers of iron armor, it can penetrate the armor on his body, which is enough to kill and injure the enemy.

At this moment, everyone was greatly shocked, not because Liu Wang's marksmanship was too good, but because they were very surprised by the penetrating power of this gun.

But Liu Wang shook his head again and again and said, "That's not right! Wrong! ”

Meng Fei pulled his throat and asked, "You've hit the head, what's wrong?" The first shot in the head from 100 paces away, this is the first time I've seen it! ”

Liu Wang immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, no!" I'm not aiming at the head, I'm aiming at the chest, how can I hit the head? Under normal circumstances, even if the firebolt hits the target, the hammer will fall a little lower, I deliberately aim a little higher, just to hit the chest, how to aim at the head, and hit the head?

The ballistics of this gun are too straight! No, let me try again! ”
