Thread: rossi single shot 223

so i bought this off another member ..... put a scope on it and took it to the range on thursday morning and put a few rounds thru it
previous owner mentioned best he could do was 3" groups with the red dot.
so was being realistic in my expectations.

reasonably happy with it , 3rd shot seems to be a flyer has been suggested to me that being a cheap single shot and the way the forend is mounted to the barrel may be the issue when it warms up or maybe when it warms up it reacts different to the pressures in the "breech" (something that wouldnt be an issue in a half decent bolt action ........ i did say to a mate if i need a third shot then maybe i should give up hunting...... so my thoughts are only do 2 shot groups and maybe try a different flavour ammo in it till i start reloading for it........any other words of wisdom?
