This post is directed to 9.3x62Al;
The only thing wrong with the late model S&W's, according to one report, is they just won't shoot:(. Hm-m-m-m! Really?
Today, was the first break in the heat wave for the last thirty days. We have had 23x25 days above 90 degrees with several over the 100 degree mark with humidity registering as high as 94%!! Now, that may be no big deal to our our good people in the Deep South, but it sure is a big deal in SW Ohio. It has been stiffling, to say the least. When it is that hot I tend to stay inside wrapped around the central air:(.
However, today we got some relief and it is only 85 Degrees. I slipped out to the range to try to blow off some cabin fever with the 625-8.
Al,
Here are the results - see the attached photos. Now, I don't want you good people to misconstrue - I am NOT bragging but merely trying to share my joy with my good Cast Boolit friends at my good fortune (both eyes have had the lens replaced and I can still shoot a bit - that is GOOD fortune if I ever heard it).
Oh, by the way, I am shooting up "old stock" and the five round target was composed of two different bullets and three different loads. That suggests that the 625-8 is not terribly ammo sensitive (now, at longer ranges there would have been greater dispersion, but it is interesting, nonetheless.
Al,
You are just going to HAVE to get one of these. You're going to LOVE it. I guarantee it!!:mrgreen:
This is the first time I was able to use the RIMZ clips. They work wonderfully well. No strain, no pain. They just do their job and when it comes time to "de-moon" you just EASILY slip the cases out of the full moon clips with your fingers.:drinks:
I had several steel full moon clips loaded and after I emptied them (shot them) I then used the California Competition Works De-Mooner (the plastic version) and after I had learned how to use it, the cases are easily extracted. Just wanted you to know how both work.
The target with five "X's" only show that I lacked the courage to continue. It is important to know when to stop[smilie=1:. I shot eight targets (75 rounds) standing (had several 100's and the worst, I believe was a 95). All done at 25 yards, standing unsupported, of course on the 25 yard timed fire target.
