Default Finally got out to the range.

I haven't been shooting much for the last few years, and even less the last couple of months. I have a really nice 342 that I don't think I've ever shot, and it seems like a perfect pocket .38. I finally got it out to the range today to make sure it worked okay. I fired 5 rounds of mild handloads, and 5 of Corbon +P 110 grain JHP. Ow. Hand is still a little tender. It shot really well, laser and sights within a couple of inches at 7 yards. Pretty sure it's my new pocket gun.

I also took out my old IHMSA revolver, a 617-1. Big contrast, totally wonderful to shoot. I used some of the Colibri I got before Trump was elected. Smells funny, but shoots well.

I was surprised how empty the range was, so I hope to spend some more time there soon.
