Any One Here Into Browning Buck Mark?

[Guest oldfella]

I bought a Browning 7.25" Buckmark "Hunter" couple of weeks ago (pic below), took it to the range and put about 100 rounds of CCI Mini-Mag and Federal Premium Gold Medal - worked like a charm. If you have one of these guns, what kind/type of ammo do you use without problems? I understand that CCI Standard Velocity works well. I like this gun, but wish I had bought the "Bullseye Target" stainless - all my guns are stainless and feel more comfortable handling stainless. I'm trying to sell it, or trade it for a Bullseye Target, eve if I have to come up with a few bucks more for it.

Hi Pete. I have a Buckmark Camper. Love it. It eats any round I want to feed it. Only thing that wouldn't cycle it were those Aguila rounds that just have the primer but no powder.

I find it a nice way to calm down after a "real" practice session.

I hear you - Those "Aguila" Super Colibrí do not have enough kick to push the side back, just what is in the primer. I suppose one could use them one-by-one to "secretly" do some plinking where shooting is not permitted, as the sound is minimal.

p.s. I did sell the Hunter to a member here face-to-face, he got a good deal. Now the hunt for either the Bullseye Target stainless or Buckmark Plus Stainless will begin in earnest. I'll let you all know how I made out.
