Hello
« on: August 27, 2008, 08:56:02 AM »
Just wanted to say this website is great.  Bought my first handi last november (223 standard) and absolutely love it.  Didn't shoot very well out of the box but went through the Handi Basics sticky at the top and got it to shoot extremely well.  Before all I could get was about 2.5" but I've got it shooting consistently under 1" @ 100yards.  Just picked up a 25-06 a couple of weeks ago but haven't got out to the range yet.  Hopefully this weekend.  Just wanted to say thanks for all the info here and introduce myself.  Cheers

Welcome from another newcomer. This is a great place to be. Anything about shooting sports can be found @gbo. If it cant someone knows where. You have crossed onto Handi holics paradise. Beware it only gets worse. Buy a bigger gun safe.
