I was able to bang 18" steel plates while out with Kazoo at 600 yards with my AR and Vortex 1x6. These were record shots for me so I was a very happy camper. These shots were made with my form 1 suppressor on the rifle as well.

I went to Colorado Clays and shot Sporting Clays for the first time ever. Kind of fun, hanging out with an old work buddy and putting the shotgun through some paces. Not a normal day at the range, but something different.

anyway, I wouldnt have picked a gun that weighs almost 2 pounds loaded as her first gun, and I wouldnt have picked a taurus, but the nice salesman told her it was a good gun and a good deal.

It shot fine for the few rounds we put through it.

I had no part in her purchasing the gun. I wasnt there. Had I been, I would probably be 86ed from there.
In case you were wondering. the gun is $253 plus free shipping at Buds, $289 at Cabelas.

I went there not too long ago for an overpriced private party transfer. Owner seems like a real nice guy, but there was not a damn thing in that store I would have bought at the prices they wanted. I won't be back...

Next time you have to go north of frogmont, touch bases with Alpha2 / Jeff.

Finished my load development and shot steel at 400, 500, 600, 700 and 1000 to document new data. MV is 2,585 and Shooter is spot on with real world hits. Steel was freshly painted and I was the only one there. Used .1 gr above and below my final load (44.5 Varget, 175 SMK, 2.005, 2.810- 2.2235) to confirm location on steel center line for correct elevation mils.

Also made some subsonic rounds (TiteGroup 8gr, CCI#200 and the same specs as my normal rounds), with the suppressor it was back yard approved. Hit the 400 yard steel at 16.8 mil drop. Who would have thought it would reach out that far consistently.
