Did you go shooting today (Pic thread)

I wish I was that good a shot lol. I was just aiming for the center of the box for 1 15 round mag.
Trying to get used to the reset on this ppq it's nice and profound but it's not quite as short as the SRT in my p226. Think I may have to check out an apex upgrade and see how it matches up to the sig SRT.

Give yourself some time to get that PPQ broken in. It is hands down the best stock trigger in an affordable pistol. Those are our daily carries...

That's a great rifle - and good shooting too! If that's a .45-70 and you're looking for a crazy-accurate light load that you could shoot all day, here it is:

Attachment 82126

Wow! 1044fps?! that's got to be soft shooting as all ghetto!
what 405gr bullet are you using?

Sighted in my new 14.5 build w/o a bench rest. you can see it was hitting a bit high at first, looking forward to dialing in longer distance.

You can shoot these all day long. Once you get your rifle zeroed, it'll be hard to return to any other load (except for hunting).

The bullets came from King Shooters Supply (405gr PC). They're poly-coated and purple. Absolutely no leading in barrel.

Finally got to the range to try out 2 newer pistols and 2 newer rifles. Some had asked about the Iver Johnson :
Iver Johnson Thrasher - very impressed. The seemingly heavy trigger pull really was not an issue at all when actually firing the gun. Actually, I liked it for a casual plinker and carry gun. Very crisp, didn't feel heavy at all. Zero issues shooting several mags of Remington ammo. Can't give a true feel for accuracy because I was at a plinking range shooting a small coffee cup not a target. The cup blew up every shot from about 30 feet so I'm good with that !
As far as the Glock 43 - well, it's a Glock - went bang every time, no issues and accurate !



For the rifles - very happy to report that my first AR build from ground up ran flawlessly. It's the GWAC's nylon lower, with PSA melonite upper with PSA BCG and extended charging handle!
The Radical Firearms AR I did have a little problem with. Bolt would not fully engage on first round after loading. Just would not go into full battery. Had to unload, really give it a strong charge and it would finally go in. Did it every time. Once done, every round shot fine. So I am hoping a good cleaning and lube will take care of it - I did nothing to it before taking it out:

Had the SPR, SKS, and a Glock 19 out today for some steel shooting. Tested out a bunch of reloads, all in all an awesome morning.

Also shot trap for the first time in a long ass time. Buddy has a sweet Beretta O/U.....I still sucked it up LOL!

I take my 930 I'm pro to do it. I love hearing all the old fuckers yelling one shot! One shot! Evidently they don't know about eliminating the threat
