BBSC post repair range report

Post by deano5150 » Sun Apr 07, 2019 11:58 am

I was able to get to the range yesterday afternoon when the rain stopped. I took my BBSC 357 out to make sure it worked after being repaired by HRA. My daughter and I put 35 rounds through it and it seems to be running just fine. I shot a nice group at 25 yards from a rest and a not-so-great group from 25 offhand standing. See pictures below. Also, here is a link to a video of my daughter exploding some water jugs.

Good to hear Henry continues to live up to their repair reputation! Good shooting too.

Don't overthink the off-hand stuff. Good shooting.

Monarch (PPU) 158gr SJHP. I got a bunch of it on sale a year ago at Academy Sports for $16.99/box. Seems to be good stuff.

Thank you, sir! I think I just need more practice. Also, my rifle is sighted in at 25 yards with the bead covering the target. When I shoot offhand I have a habit of holding at six o’clock. I have to work on that.
