Hi Folks!

Bob, Marvin is right on target. Shoot the pistol from a rest, and use different brands of ammunition. Iâ??ve seen pistols and rifles with bores that would be an insult to a sewer pipe shoot groups youâ??d have to see to believe. I have one Kar98k that was converted from 8x57 to 7.62x63 by Norway with a bore that has only traces of rifling in part of the bore that will literally put bullets through the same hole at 50 yards and shoot half-inch groups at 100 yards. I won a lot of range bets with that rifle before folks learned not to bet against it

Best regards,

Kyrie
