With the intention of turning it into a shorty if it didn’t shoot aswell as it could
tetawa Said it shot well but if im honest i was a little sceptical
I put a little 4x32 trashco on it which was the only scope i had
And this morning took it to the farm to run it through it’s paces
And at 50 meters it done this with cci standard
10 shots ignore the other 2 they were from zeroing

How worng could i be just goes to show a bulge dosen’T always spell the end
Cheers tetawa very very happy mate

All good, but if it had shot poorly I would have told you. Have found that bulges in the last 50 mm usually turn the grouping to crap, hope you get plenty of enjoyment from it.

Yeah it will get plenty of use and will probably make my model 1 redundant unfortunately
It’s definitely had a trigger mod in the past that’s no factory trigger stunning trigger

Yeah I know you would have said if it shot crap mate most guys on here are pretty honest which is cool
But i was thinking it may shoot excellent at 25m but if that barrel bulge made the bullet slightly un stable it may open up at 50+M
