finished my .357, love it!!!
« on: February 07, 2013, 03:08:50 AM »
I finialy got my .357 all done. I was able to shoot it at a indoor range and get it all zeroed, but i had not shot it out doors. Last night i went over to my friends house to show it to him. It was about 7:30pm and he lives in a subdivision. We walked out in his back yard and fired off about 5 rounds into a tin can. This thing is quieter than a supressed 22LR semi auto, stupid quiet! It has just enough "recoil" to let you know it has something behind it, more than a .22.  Also with the short barrel, stock and optics mounted forward it breacks down great. Each half is only 16.5", it fits in my range bag or shoulder bag. I cant say how much fun this thing is.

Sweet little rifle.  The single shot is quieter because you don't have gas cycling the action.

I have a CZ452 bolt action 22 that i shoot suppressed. That is by far the quietist gun i have. But this thing is not much louder at all.

what is that optic?

It is just a  old Ultradot red dot i had laying around. It works great for now. I might want some magnification at some point. But right now i am enjoying how small it is.
