Post by: HntnFsh on July 20, 2014, 04:05:04 PM: I have one. Extremely accurate.One time i got tired of hitting the bullseye at 100 yards. So started shooting the tacks that held up the targets. Had a bee land on a target. Creamed him.first shot. Mine loves 20 grain bullets. Not picky on brand. Extremely fun to shoot!

Its like any other ammo some guns like it some don't. Mine shoots it and 20 grain great but my brothers won't group for squat with it, his prefers 20 grain.

I took my first coyote with the same gun and 17 grain bullet last Sunday. Dropped in its tracks at 125 yards.
