No, nothing happened with this pistol or the barrel. Previous owner just gave up pistol shooting.

The previous owner said that he can remember what he was loading. He is guessing that he loaded 4.9gr AP70 behind a 124gr FP Berry’s projectile.
He also said that his groupings were in the 3” to 5”...

Twist rate is 1:16, 6 lands and groves. Ramped match bull barrel.
I used heaps of different ammo. Nothing worked well. Thanks for the advice re the.358 projectiles.
Will give them a try next time.

Got this SPS Falcon 9mm bull barrel second hand and tried to get good groupings at 25m. Totally hopeless, even at shorter distances.
Is there anyone who can give me an advice about an accuracy load,...

…..it’s still a lot of money in my opinion. Because it will come as the bare rifle. No flip up sights, no carry case and only a 5 round magazine.

Sorry for the first picture.
I don’t know why it turns upside down after uploading.

I use my one as a target rifle and it doesn’t bother me if I have to lift up my head a bit to load the next round.
I’m not in a hurry when I do long range target shooting. I like the UTAS because it...

Thanks dogmatix

Last week I stumbled across a .303 Lee Enfield Magazine.
I did a little research and found out that the magazine is an early SMLE magazine, dating from around 1906/07. Magazine was updated from...

NZShoota. I’m going to use my 18” barrel Tikka and test out your load of 22.3gr. Thanks for your advice.

Steelisreal, I’m feeding from a magazine, OAL 2.260/57.4mm.
Thanks for the advice re the YouTube website. Will have a look at that.
Will also try some test loads of 22.3gr and 23.3gr. Cheers.

....forgot to mention. I’m not going to use a silencer. Thanks.

Yes, .223. Sorry.

Hi guys, I’m being looking for an accuracy load of Hornady 75gr HPBT projectiles.
I’m going to use ADI 2206H powder, Federal primers 205 and Hornady cases.
Target distance 100 yards. Barrel length...

I’m shooting pistol calibres from .22lr to .45ACP and rifles from also .22lr to .308Win. Also 12g shotgun as o/u and semi. I owned a nice selection of really top notch semi-autos in .223...

Thanks Phil, this forum becomes my daily reading now. Like lectures on a night stand. 👍

Hi everyone.

I've been target shooting for many years (33), albeit on another continent. I have moved from Germany to New Zealand 10 1/2 years ago and NZ has now become my home.
I am based in...
