Took it to the range and bought a box of magtech cowboy action loads.Also had time to reload 50 255gr. Lazercast semiwadcutters with 8gr. of Unique.
It shoots like a dream and I'm very satisfied with my purchase. Started at about 30ft. and had to make some minor sight adjustment as it was shooting a bit to the left for me. After that she was right on the money producing groups in the 2" range. Moving the target back to 25 yards groups opened up to about 3 to 3 1/2" and again moved 2" to the left. Not as good as my 6" barreled revolvers but I attribute that more to my aging eyesight than to the guns capability.
