Horton Knives....Official Firearms Thread II

[Paulinski]

Tried out the shotgun today. I'm a total shotgun newb so go easy on me.

Patterned it with Federal Viral Shok 2-3/4 00 Buck (9 Pellets) today at 10 yards

I like the shottie a lot pauli. Pattern as many different loads as you can find, because there will likely be a HUGE difference between them. Don't discount them just because they are inexpensive either. Doing this will help you find whaþ runs best in your particular weapon.

Great advice Rick :thumbup: Shotguns are a little bit different.

Since Pauli rolls his own, I might add buy the cheapest reloadable that you can find, and learn how it patterns - Adjustments will be made after that.

Birdshot is not just for the birds

Mines just 44 mag

Good enough :thumbup::thumbup: some 300gr XTP's or 240gr Keiths....

The 2K price tag means 3K here so that kind of dampens my lever gun dreams....:grumpy:

 

[Jeremy Horton]

I have been shooting.
235g hornaday leverevolution

 

[Paulinski]

I'm gonna cast you some 240gr Keiths when the mold comes.

 

[Jeremy Horton]

I can't shoot lead. I have a microgroove barrel

I bought some of those for my .30-30 and still haven't sighted 'em in.
Do they really make the lever guns reach out and touch something a little further?

 

[Mr. Night]

nice shotty Paulie! I love to shoot 12 ga, experimenting with the different loads is pretty fun, too. is there trap shooting at your range?
