My new FA '83 comes through!!
« on: October 21, 2006, 03:59:12 PM »
Today I shot my best ever group ever using my new FA '83 (6" barrel & fixed sights) loaded with a 345 gr. WLN over 18.0 gr. of AA9 (25 yrds).  Wonderful things happen with that gun when I remember to concentrate on the front sight and stroke the trigger smoothly.  That, BTW was using the 454 Casull cylinder. I know this does not impress the "one ragged hole" crowd but for this old timer with 63 year old eyes its quite an accomplishment.  I'm a happy camper tonight!!

For a 63 year old person , you have very good eyes. Assuming that you hunt with your handgun, I would mount a Leupold handgun scope and use this system for a 125 yard weapon. Rod in Pa
