tneff ...

Welcome to the best site I have found in the last several years. This group takes their NEF's seroiusly and will help with any issues you might have. Like you, I have a lot of other firearms besides the first 2 Handi's I bought in the last several months but there is something about the challenge of getting a Handi fine-tuned to meet your expectations that is exciting. Both of my Handi's are in .223 and both have exceeded my expectations as far as consistency/accuracy go though I have not yet worked with my "bumble-bee" laminated Handi as much as is needed.

I have a .223 Savage 10 FP that can shoot with the best of the "factory" rifles yet I always take one of my Handi's with me to the range. I am the only one at my favorite gunshop/range that takes their Handi seriously enough to develop good loads to shoot sub MOA consistently. Once others hear about or see my range targets, they too get interested. I have helped my friend sell quite a few Handi's since I tuned mine to be a good shooter.

Good luck and good shooting .....

:D , Welcome aboard tneff, this is a great site and I am sure you will find whatever you need here. Many of the guys are in Oklahoma right now on our "First Annual H&R/GB's Prarie Dog Shoot and Truth Stretchers Extravaganza" some are staying in hotels or motels  Hooker, Ok (really!!), some are in Motorhomes, truck campers or trailers, and some may even be in tents, but all are shooting and having fun. They are have nightly meetings/cookouts/soft drink tasteing parties at a revamped chicken coop/clubhouse in the area set up by wlscott, one of our gracious members. This is what you have to look forward to next year, the Second yada-yada-yada, whatever it's called then :-D ....<><.... :grin:

Welcome to the board. My enthusiasm for NEF's and H&R's is really growing. Any time I go out shooting I always take one with me. Infact, that's the majority of my shooting.  :D
