I'm away from home and won't be back until Friday. I should have pictures and a shooting report by next week. Thank you for your continued interest to help.
My bad, I should have clarified with 'Drill rounds'. Assumption is the mother of all f**k ups as they say.Quote:

It was a great day on the range. Thank you all that took the time to help me.
Happy shooting.
