It loads, it goes bang, it ejects, but any sort of reliable, repeatable accuracy and precision seems to elude it as close as five metres (~6 yards).
What sort of performance should I expect from it? My suspicions lie with the following in order: Ammo, user, firearm.
Ammunition (Remington bulk pack) - there are a few rounds in this box I couldn't even put in the cylinder, and some wouldn't allow free rotation. Those will be sequestered and fired off in my single-shot combination rifle.
My first impulse is to try with a different brand, then something more toward the premium end. If that doesn't fix the problem, at least I have another gun I can use it in.
User - requires practice, practice, practice... but my centrefire handguns seem to do better.
Firearm - the impression I get is of shooting low and left at five metres. If this persists but the groups close up with different ammo, it's off to the gunsmith for some adjustments to the front sight. (I do not consider myself anywhere near competent to do this at home.)
Am I missing something?
