Okay, I've been waiting anxiously since pickup up from Sacramento Black Rifle on Wednesday and was able to make it to the Gun Room. Most of my shooting was offhand and I was very pleased to be shooting 1.5" grouping @ 25 yards.
Before shooting, I did do a cleaning and lubrication. I also cycled the action about a hundred times before the range session (mostly because I wanted to play with it...anxious an all).
Like others have said, it has pretty much eaten up everything that I've fed it. I say pretty much because I has one issue with the Winchester group (but I think it was a dud. I shook the round and it rattled inside
).
I shot...
300 rounds of Federal 550 round value pack.
200 rounds of Winchester 333 round (36 gr. 1280 FPS) - 1 dud. Rattling round?
100 rounds of CCI Stingers.
100 rounds of Remington Gold Bullet (that crap is messy on the hands).
200 rounds of Remington Thunderbolt.
I shot them in the order listed above. I saved the Thunderbolt for last because I saw someone post that YouTube of these rounds fouling up so bad it essentially smoothed out the bore. I shot 200 rounds without a single issue.
That was very fun to shoot (now my favorite gun). People at the range were asking about it and I even let a guy shoot it. I know others wanted to try...remember feel free to ask if at the range. I would have let more shoot it if they just asked.
