Range Report

so on a whim i bought a H&R handi rifle chamberd in 500 s&W to go with my 500 pistol. finally got a chance to put some round down range. The first problem i had was with the sights they are tru glo fiber but the houseing for the front and rear are all plastic. I am planing on useing this one at 100 yards or less so i wasnt going to put a scope on it, but with the stock sights i had to do something so i bought a weaver base and stuck my Eotech on top. I had read some reviews on line and was disheartend by some of the problems i had read. But what the heck if its on the internet it has to be true. The good stuff now bore sighted it at 25yd and then put some lead down the pipe. wow 400gr. winchester hollow points what fun. It has about the same kick as a shotgun shooting  3 1/2 mag. shells as far as accurcy goes its not a tack driver but lobing 400 grains of lead down range tacks are not a problem. but all in all i would have to say it was a great buy and would buy it again.handi500_zps7b403639.jpg
