New Handi
« on: June 22, 2007, 01:29:11 AM »
Well, I did it again.  I stopped into K&K Guns to see what is new, and they had a used Ultra Varmint in .223.  I am going to be $149.95, + 9.25% tax, poorer this afternoon.  At least I'll be able to shoot all of the .223 ammo that I have left over from the AR-15 that I used to have.  I'm going to have to stop going to the gun shops and shows before I go broke!

Actually, I have been waiting for one to show up in the local shops for the last 9 months, so this is a great opportunity.  And the price is right!

woodchukhntr,  You will like your new find if it shoots as well as mine.  I have a handload that's a real tack driver and as I understand, most of the .223 Handi's are shooters.  $150.00 is a price that is way too good to turn down.

Mine is not the ultra, but it is a shooter for sure.  I just wouldn't get your hopes up too high about using the AR ammo.  I found mine to be a little picky with the factory ammo it really likes.  Any surplus and especially wolf ain't worth @#$% in my handi. Only good thing with the LC brass I have from surplus will be when I decide to start reloading.  Good luck with it.
