Range Report2_SGC and Me

Although a little cool outside today (low 50s), I enjoyed some more range time with my new SGC (H001TLP). I'm very glad that the winds we experienced last week have "blown away."
I continue to be impressed with how accurate this shorter-barreled, well-balanced rifle performs. This was my third time out with the carbine, and have now put 250 rounds downrange with it. Today I shot 80 rounds, 40-Armscor 36gr HV-HP, and 40-Remington 36gr BP-HP. 80 rounds with zero FTFs, zero FTEs, and smooth, smooth, smooth chambering! I chose the smallest aperture size I have for the Sknner peep, used the 0.70". Again, the Henry Spee-D-Loader was great and easy to handle.
At both distances I shot off hand. The first three targets are at 25 yards, the solo target at 50 yards. Happy-happy to see improvement from my last range report, especially at the 50-yard mark. No doubt about it -- Henry has made a great carbine.
Have a great weekend, Everyone.
