Sidekick-Long range accuracy
« on: October 10, 2004, 02:21:00 AM »
Hey guys, since so many of you have the new Sidekicks now I was just wondering if anyone has tried theirs at the 200yd. ranges with the max 150gr. loads. How do they compare to some of the other ones out there that claim MOA at 200yds.? Ya know like the CVA Optima Pro or the TC Omega? If I were to ever go to one of the max load guns I would sure rather go with my favorite gunmaker's offering than the others. 200yds. in a 1" hole would be quite a selling point too, don't ya think? I guess I'm really refering to the 26" barreled models and not the 24"'ers. H&R lists them as "Magnum" so I was just wondering.

I have not tried mine with 150 grains but with 100 grainsof loose pyrodex and a 240 grain lead round nose in a hornady sabot it will hold 3 inch groups at 125 yards about 2 inches low form my 75 yard sight in. That is more than plenty for me.
