As the title says: I was at the range today and finally shot my 190.
Once I got it sighted in I had all 10 shots in the black freehand on a standard 20 yd small bore target at 20 - 25 yds. I was stuffing this rifle with some CCI hollow points (mini mag), not even decent match stuff! On the rest it was shooting one ragged hole. This may not sound like much to some but I haven't shot this sport since I was a kid & thats what compelled me to buy this rifle a couple of years ago when I saw it on the rack. Now in my late thirties, I kinda felt like I was twelve again at the local YMCA shooting range (in the basement) down in Sarnia. Parents use to drive me into town on Tuesday nights to shoot peep sighted single shot Cooey's. Later when I got to highschool I would occasionally shoot at its indoor range with similiar rifles that the highschool owned!
Anyway getting back to this rifle, it has almost been a goner on more than one gun deal , but for one reason or another remained in the back of safe until today. Needless to say I was very impressed & will be taking this one out more often. By the way, I know these rifles were brought in by CIL, but mine has no such markings, only a maple leaf under the grip. Anyone know the story on this?
