No idea of the exact round count, but plenty enough to say it's a solid little pistol built to shoot, regardless of any growing pains it had when first introduced.
This ain't a gimmick gun...
Estimated round count is somewhere between 500 and 1000, it has fired every time the trigger has been...
If you look up reviews on the Bodyguard 380 they're all over the place, plenty of people love them and plenty hate them.
After having mine a few weeks and putting a fair amount of rounds through it, I also have an opinion... so I thought I'd share it... this might get long winded.
It has...
Pocket rockets... always understood they have their place in the world, just never liked the idea of depending on something so.....weak.
But, things change, situations change - and we gotta adapt or get left behind.
After my heart attack a while back I've been talking a long look at how I...
I keep going round and round over whether to do it with 22LR, 9mm, or 300 Blackout.
Kind of a ranch rifle kind of thing...dispatching raccoons, foxes, coyotes, etc.
9mm seems a reasonable choice, but most of them aren't terribly accurate at 100 yards.... and don't much like the idea of...
This was the 2nd forum I ever joined, Beretta forum was first.
Not near as active on here, or any other forum, as I have been in the past, but I still check in regularly and glance over the recent posts, may even reply from time to time.
Have had some good discussions here over the years.
Lots of articles talk about how much harder snubs are to shoot accurately than semi autos....
I must be odd, because the opposite is true for me, that's why I made the switch, I found out that I can shoot the wheel gun faster and more accurately.
And it is not a lack of practice with the semi...
I'm a slow learner I guess... I've been carrying for 25 years, and only just now I've found what I've been looking for the whole time.
A good old fashioned wheel gun.
I'm not sure exactly what took me so long, but I'm blaming it mostly on "capacity envy".
I never cared for revolvers much...
To begin this I want to explain the rifle this happened to...Its an FN made Winchester model 70 in 30-06, McMillan Supergrade stock, and before this had been wearing a Vortex Viper HS 4-16x44mm scope...I've spent 4 years and $2,350 putting this rifle together (rifle, scope, stock, stock bedding...
Yes, she very happily accepted a rifle for our 12th anniversary...and no, this isn't a thread asking which one to get...I've already got the rifle, the scope, and the rings on the way to the house...her old Rem 700 270 just never did perform as it should, very accurate rifle...with a very slow...
First of all...they are both great rounds...I'm not now, nor will I ever try to "tear down" either one of them, I seek only to dispel myths and kill time constructively :) (I'm bored, lol)...I hunt with a 30-06, my wife uses a 270...she picked the 270 on her own, based on less recoil while still...
Its not a monster, but will be good eating.
Shot with her 270...130 Nosler Ballistic Tip pushed by 54 grains of H4350.
The deer was 345 yards away and quartering away slightly...I told her the drop and wind drift, she did the rest...dropped him with one shot.
I'd say she's off to a great...
;)
A buddy called and wanted to sell his brand new, bought it last November, Savage model 11 Hunter in 243...he has never even fired it...I shot it 20 times when I sighted it in for him and thats all its been fired.
He wanted $600 for the rifle and scope (Nikon 3-9x40 BDC)...I told him that...
I already have two...a Colt 6920 and a Smith & Wesson M&P.
This new one was my sons, he decided to sell it but didn't want it to get "away from him"...LOL...he needed some $$$...anyway it is a Sig 516, by all accounts is a good rifle, has never given any trouble. I gave him $1,000 for the rifle...
If anybody has one I'd like to hear about its accuracy out to 100 yards...I'm thinking about buying one for a "pest gun"...that is anything from rats to coyotes to stray dogs chasing my horses...been having a problem with that lately...the mule will get them eventually, but I want a 22 mag...
Here is the bedding after trimming and fitting.
Far from perfect, but it seems to be working though...this rifle will now shoot any ammo you feed it into lil tiny groups...and to the same point of aim (@ 100 yds), regardless of bullet weight.
I've shot reloads with 150 SST's, 165 AB's, 168...
I bought this rifle last November...
A little later I got a Vortex Viper HS 4-16x44 scope...I put it in TPS super low aluminum rings on Warne 2 piece steel bases.
And today the final piece of the puzzle arrived at my door...the McMillan Supergrade.
I'm glad this is...
Anybody made this modification? If so, how do you like it?
Says it reduces lock time by up to 40%...that can't hurt accuracy any...I need all the help I can get :D
...specifically the Buck Commander 4-16x42mm model.
A buddy of mine is looking for a scope with the following features...4-16x variable, over 40mm objective...but not a 50mm, and a BDC reticle.
The scope is for a 7mmWSM (older M70 Ultimate Shadow)...the rifle WILL see 400 yard shots, 300...
The rifle...Model 70 (FN made) 30-06 Ultimate Shadow...still wearing the factory stock for now...a genuine 600 yard rifle, skinny barrel and all.
168 grain Ballistic Tip, 58 grains H4350...chrono'd at 2,850 fps...I pulled one out a bit, but you get the idea...this group is .5 MOA, if I had not...
