shiyfire, my guess is that the coyotes and other varmints in your area are in serious trouble! Seems to me he has the rythym and shooting down pat. Congrats on bringing another shooter to the Handi-holics unanimous fold, Take care, John.
It's not what you do, but how you do what you do, that counts.

And some folks think these gun aren't accurate.  Love to hear the bullet strikes.  Gongs are nice, but hitting the side of a Caribou makes a sound like hitting a bass drum.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

The kid helps me reload from time to time . Handi rifles really are accurate,we can usually get about a dozen hits at long range before the barrel gets hot .I usually zero mine at 200 -250 yards on steel and the groups are really close. I buy the midway 55 grain dogtown bullets and load them up with varget and lake city brass ,they shoot like a champ.

Varget powder 25.5 grains
55grain dogtown bullet
2.250 OAL
This may be too hot for your gun so start low and work up.
