44 Devil Rifle Exorcism
« on: May 18, 2012, 08:35:34 AM »
Some time back I posted about a new 44 youth I got for my wife. It just wouldn't group. Sent it to rem and when I got it back no change. Then I followed everyone's advise and pm ed Brian and sent it to him. They were out of 44 barrels so he offered to put a Talo barrel on it. I just shot  3/4 inch group (3 shots) at 50 yds. I think it's turning into a little angel. Now the reloading tinkering can begin to see just how well the little angel will shoot. Thanks again Brian.

Depends...is that at 10, 50 or 100yds.?, bench or offhand, and open sights I expect. New too, aint broke in and you aint used to it. Likely you and it will settle down and do better, though some shooters never do and blame the gun. I think (and this is only MHO), that if it will shoot 2" new at 50 or more, it is a shooter and you can expect better as you tweek it.
Oh....and have FUN!  ;D
