As you see ... we had Jim's gun set to hit at 5 o'clock. And ... everything we shot, landed there. Therefore; Jim's stinky old buckshot horded private stock he brought along ... more innocent .... two of my custom slug designs, and my quick buckslug bullets .... all shot to POA. Even with two different shooters.

Nice shooting guys, looks like fun. I have to ask though, who was aiming at Jim in the second picture? wow

That's all great shooting guys! Glad you were still able to find some ammo. The buds at Surefire can make up a pile of slugs for anyone that needs a batch. Come to think of it,,,Is Jerry cornering the market on buckshot to limit competition? Tricky fella!!more innocent

Yeah Kent ...

nowthatIthink

When I called Hornady yesterday ... I was #8 in the "Q", according to their running automated voice. Then, all of the sudden, someone burst in ... sort of breathless ... and said, "Gosh Jerry, I just saw your number ... I'm really sorry to make you wait!!" bowing

I said ... "It's G ... Gary ... Not Jerry". And they said ... "What?" I said ... "Gary ... Gary Barnes". They said ... "Why are you using Jerry's phone?" I said "What?" I heard a click ..... hello ..... hello ......

And then the automated voice said, "You are number 18, in the "Q".

more confused

G... Gary

Beautiful Gun guys!

Jim, if it ever needs to find a new place to live, please let me know.

Third pic down, look at all the bits on the left side of the pic. A whole wall of 'em. Right behind the drill press, of all crazy places.

Yeah Griffin,

After moving them around all over the shop for thirty years; that was the last place I thought I'd try! More coffee laughing again

That was fun . . . thanks Gary. shooter

This was actually better than going to the range, as all the remaining snow / ice melted yesterday and turned the ground into soup. Help!

That buckshot does shoot great -- such a drag that it's been discontinued. That second pic was my very first group of the day, which turned out to be the best one (of course). And I ordered two more boxes of it yesterday (all that I could find). The good news is that the slugs shoot very well too -- but of course they're more work.

Hi Neil,

Yeah ... pretty much. There's always something grabbing ya though, when you try to walk by. You'd swear I was trying to carry a thirty foot extension ladder thru the shop. hahah.

Seems like that Victory shoots everything you can stuff into it pretty well, and to a very similar aim point. Nice work there, that's a neat trick to pull off with any gun.
