    Sooo........

    I threw a central on today and tried to get an idea of where it was shooting. At 50 yards, some rounds would hit paper and some would miss.... this thing shoots like a shotgun.

    My guess is that its shooting a 2 foot group at 50 yards. The reciever is so loose in the forearm that it almost rattles around in it, i reckon that after sitting in a cupboard for 20 years the wood has shrunk away form the reciever and its not remotely bedded.
