I took these 2 to the range today and shot em both. usins 2 hands wresting my for arms on a sand bag.
I started at 7 yards to get an idea where they were close. They didnt seem to far off so i moved the target out to 15.
The .36 is a hawes firearms older from the 70s i think. It has had a broken bolt in the past and i got one to work with some dremel work. To me the cylinder is still kinda loose once it locks up the cylinder can still wiggle a little.
The .44 hasnt had anything done to it. Both dont shoot very good IMO the .44 is slightly better.
.36 i used a level scoop from a .40 cal case (about 20grains) 2F Tripple 7
.44 i used a level scoop from a 45ACP case (about 26grains) 2F Tripple 7
No wads, bore butter over ball and remington #10 caps
Can anyone see a problem? Is it my shooting? Im about ready to get rid of them both.
