Range report today

First range trip with new BB: ran through golden sabres, silvertips, lawman,gold dots, Hornady Critical Defense, PMC JHP, all without a hiccup. 6th round of Black Hills subsonic 115 FMJ failed to feed.

Target shown is from 8 yards. The patched holes are from a Seecamp .32 fired one handed point and pull (no sights,,,belly gun best used at 2 to 4 yards). The marked holes are from the Boberg at 8 yards rapid aimed fire using the front sight with focus on the target, modified Weaver stance. The first seven were aimed at center mass and the last round at the head. Impressive weapon...at that range equal to my Kimber CDPII .45. John

Welcome to the owner's club!

Great that you're getting the accuracy of the much larger gun but in a much easier to carry format!

Question - how many rounds went through before your Black Hills FTF?

I loaded a full mag with the 8th round in the barrel. The next to last round (6th in the mag) failed to feed. I dropped it out, fired the last round in mag, replaced the round that didn't feed in the magazine and it fed correctly. I don't think I limp wristed the shot that FTF, but it is possible. I ran out of time (promised The One Who Must Be Obeyed I'd be home), so I didn't try any further Black Hills. They don't work well in my Rohrbaugh, so I'll continue to use them for practice in the BB.
