I do need to use a rest and see what it can do for me.
It does have some kick for sure! I didn’t have my cheap leather glove that helps protect my middle finger, and I know I was holding the gun wrong, but it didn’t hurt my finger that bad like my 629-6. That 44 is an excellent shooter even in my hands. I replaced the rubbers twice with no luck on the trigger guard so I bought some wooden ones. Made my finger happy. Anyway, I surprised myself one day and was calling my shots (to my easily amazed grandson) within an inch or less! I did the eyes and nose, then reloaded the 3 empties and put a pearl necklace on it! That’s K22 m shooting for this piker! So, if I can get this M57 to do that I’ll sell the 6” 44 cannon!
Thanks for the kind comments on my debut range performance.
PS: I hope yinz didn’t think I was serious using that “rifle target” excuse! If so, I’m definitely going to use it next bad shooting day!
