HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE
« on: May 10, 2007, 05:21:44 PM »
OK I am a little excited, I picked up my 45 BC today and took it to the range. Just a short session as I need to drift the sight over to correct its shooting left. I didn't have anything along to do it with. I had a box of factory loaded Remington 250 grain SWC. I was surprised at the recoil but I guess that steel surprised plate doesn't cushion much shock.

I picked up a 250 pack of 454 diameter Hornady cast bullets. Whats a nice mild load for that bullet. I have AA-5 and 5744

James, the rear sight on mine is snug, but it can be moved by hand, the dovetail needs to be staked so it will stay put once you get it sighted in. ;)

I moved the sight on the 45 LC BC and went to the range. As soon as I got there it started to rain like the proverbial cow. Maybe tomorrow.
