Range Report on 45 Colt Classic Carbine
« on: April 05, 2010, 02:25:30 PM »
 This was just a fun and funtioning test.. Was shooting Magtech Cowboy Action loads at 60 yards.. Gun functioned flawlessly. No problems.. Sights need some adjustments but hit most of the steel targets and shotgun clays I had set up at 60.. Next week we try her on paper.. I think I'll keep this one.

Good deal, love mine, but my old eyes and the bead and buckhorns did not get along in bright sunlight. Switched to a peep rear and globe front and all is well.
It has perfect balance for off-hand shooting and the trigger is surprisingly good.
