My new Handi .223 is home safe and sound
« on: May 25, 2006, 11:45:22 AM »
Went and picked it up today. Topped it off with a Millet 3-12x44 scope. I am very pleased with the detail and quality once again. I took it to the range for a break in session and what a fun gun to shoot. It will shoot .8 groups at 80 yards with no modifications. I was shooting the White Box 45 grain jhp. One three shot group was at .6 but a number 4 flyer put it at an 1 inch. I hate flyers. My fault more than likely. Here is the beast.

The neat thing was when I was getting it on paper at 50 yards I had three shots that were touching. This little gun has the ability to shoot .5 at 100 yards with handloads.
