As promised. Results from yesterday. More testing will ensue and improvement should coincide with more practice. I liked this "benchrest" testing, but there is definitely a technique that I need to master. I picked up on a few things I need to work on.

The H&R 922 with the red dot proved to be a formidable package. I plan on making larger target grips for it. It is surprisingly accurate for an old cheap gun and has potential. It was my Dad's. Yes the red dot looks super fugly. But it was damn fun. This will go head to head against my SW22 Victory.

H&R 929 either has a junk barrel or needs different ammo. I love the iron sights and swing out cylinder. Trigger is excellent in SA, just like the 922. If it doesn't fair better with different ammo, it will become a revolver trainer and steel target plinker. I have other guns to do accuracy work with. I have next to nothing invested in this gun.

Ruger Wrangler did better than the H&R 929. 3rd group was best for each ammo, so I should do a longer string of groups next time in case the barrel takes a bit to get seasoned for each ammo. Also, it will need testing with HV ammo to get that POI up higher. Room for improvement. Loves the way this handles and shoots. The trigger is excellent. Slow to load and unload, but that is easily overshadowed by the fun in each trigger squeeze.

SW22 Victory got a new Tandemkross trigger and it will take some time to get used to the 2lb pull weight. I do not run my triggers usually any lower than 3 - 3.5lbs. This really gave me a challenge. Found myself pulling A LOT of shots because I was not aimed just yet. This will go head to head against the H&R 922 red dot gun for Top Dog Super Sniper 22 Pistol bragging rights. I have A LOT of money in this gun. It has way more potential than what these groups show. I was tired and fatigued when I got to this gun. I could see it in the dot while aiming and the groups show it.

I was going for the thing about waiting on something for months via mail order aspect.

After two doctors appointments today, I’m focused on the old part.

 

[mcapo]

Your younger than me you wipper snapper.

True enough.

yipp, I always pass Brownells....I know a ton of those folks - they're mostly from Montezuma, IA just down the road.

My hometown is 25 miles south of Brownell's and my college town is 35 miles SW

I was back just 2 weeks ago - so we took care of TG & Christmas all in 1 visit.

Tomorrow is my 69th Bday...so there will be some kinda fireworks then.

I'll keep ya posted.

Happy early Birthday Deacon. Hope it's a good one!

More experimenting needed. Put the red dot on the short barreled H&R to remove the disadvantage of a short sight radius and get the advantage of the long barrel/sight radius back on the other H&R.

Good evening CZ fans.

I always see it on the way back to SD but never stopped in.
