I took my BBSC 357 and two pistols out to the range Saturday.

I shot 10 rounds of Monarch 158gr SJHP at 25 yards through the rifle while propped for a decent group.

Then I shot ten more rounds while standing. I was quite pleased to hit the bull six out of ten shots. Most of my rifle shooting has been while propped. I need more practice holding that rifle steady while shooting offhand. I’m not sure where that 10th round landed.

Then I put 50 rounds of Remington 115gr FMJ through my Ruger SR1911 Lightweight Commander 9mm. Here is one of the better groups. All shots were offhand at 7 yards. I’m not the best shot with a pistol but this was pretty good for me. This is my favorite pistol to shoot.

Finally, I shot 50 rounds of Monarch steel cased 94gr FMJ 380ACP through my Glock 42 offhand at 7 yards. As is typical of me, I shot low left.

Also, I had a failure to extract malfunction with the steel cased ammo.

I’ve shot 300 rounds of the steel cased 380 and had this type of malfunction maybe 3 or 4 times. I only bought the Russian junk because it was $8.50/box. I won’t be buying anymore steel ammo for any of my guns. Out of 1700 rounds, the only malfunctions I’ve had with my Glock 42 have been with this ammo.
All in all it was a fun, relaxing day at the range!
