First shots fired tonight (finally) using 270gr Hornady ammo. I initially just brought it just to check the recoil before sighting in my very sweet CDL 243,but I was totally hooked after the first round. The recoil is almost identical to my Marlin Guide Gun, which I love dearly. I didn't get sub-MOA, but I can tell the gun is most definitely capable, as I did put 2 through the same hole.

I freaking love this gun. The power to recoil ratio is extremely favorable to the shooter, and the shorter barrel is well worth whatever minor velocity loss there is. I can't believe I would ever say this, but I think I like this gun more than my 45-70.


...on earth as it is in Texas.
