LEt us know how it shoots!

Hello David,
Thanks for your feedback.
As I bought it of a gunsmith I do hope they have checked it.
(Especially as I mentioned I want to shoot it).

Concerning the ammo you are actually rather confirming my suspicion, that the 140gr might not be the best option.
However the Winchester white box seems to be difficult to come by here in Germany. But 115gr ammo should generally not be too much of a problem to find here.
Best regards,
Martin
