OK, after working/honing my trigger group in this little 125 dollar rifle, I mounted a 50 dollar (I think these scopes are worth twice that. I have 3 of them), and here are 3 types of ammo I tried. I had one nice 10 shot group from the Remingtons, but had one FTF, and after rotating it and trying again, it fired, but about 3/4 inch off target ruining that group.
Just thought y'all might want to look at them. I have a CZ 452FS that is my normal Squirrel gun, but when I need a "grab-n-go gun" I snatch my handi-sportster of the hook and go! I would not hunt with it before the trigger/spring work, but now I feel fine taking it out in the field.
