Went to the range and just got back, I was shooting my 450 with 8gr Unique and a 255g boolit, it was shooting about 3' high at 25 yds. I told my son I am going to shoot the weed that is growing on the burm about 75 yds away and to my surprise it hit dead on. Now I was impressed as the pistol has a 2' barrel and I was surprised that I hit anything at that distance.

Congratulations. Hard shooting at that distance but now you know you have the tallent... How was the recoil? Not real bad the grips are great! This is my carry gun, at 3/7/1 5 yds you can keep it in the eye socket of one of the silhouette targets you use in your CCW class. A friend said does it bother you that you only have five shots? No I say if the dude doesn't go down in five 255g Gold Dots it is time to pray or run (can't run to old a crippled up)
Can't hardly wait till the end of August as I am almost blind in my right eye (my use to be dominate eye) and they are going to fix it then, can't hardly wait. It has a good side though it has taught me to shoot left handed with pistol and rifle and not to bad ether.
