Bushmaster AR ....something wrong with the firing pin I guess. It would put a dent in the primer but shell would not fire . But IMO built shabby so I sold it but did tell him what it was doing .
Me too. Gallery gun model.A Rossi pump 22 with a 16" barrel, couldn't hit a barn if I was standing inside it. Got same gun with a 23" barrel and seemed I couldn't miss.
I had a pre 64 then like a dumbazz went and sold it years ago. After I sold realized what a big mistake that was. Bought a post 64, installed a custom recoil pad, had a muzzle brake installed, couple of other accoutrements upgrades, and now you can shoot that rifle all day long. My son bought a Boyd stock for me one Christmas and bedded it. Would sell it no matter what.My worst was a Win model 70 featherweight in 30-06. I was a wet behind the ears teenager when I bought it. The recoil was unbearable with the steel skeleton butt plate and hot varmint loads. My shoulder was pretty much wrecked from a motorcycle wreck to begin with. When I bought it, my long term goal was big game out west but used it for groundhogs before the "out west" could take place. Kinda wish I still had it, was a pre 64 model and would fetch a handsome sum nowadays.
I had a customer one time who said his mod 70 in 338 mag would "kill at both ends"!When I moved to Alaska about 25 years ago I was young and broke so I bought that one rifle that could kill anything in the state, a Ruger wood stocked M77 in .338 Win Mag. There was truthfully nothing wrong with the gun other than I hated shooting it. Something about the ergonomics made it kick harder than a 416 Rigby I had shot before. At the range I could get about 3 shots down range and my shoulder would be quivering in pain. I sold it.
I've shot some heavy hitters, 416 Rigby and 375 H&H specifically and I would take those anyday over that 338 WM.I had a customer one time who said his mod 70 in 338 mag would "kill at both ends"!
Same here. It was all over the place.A rossi single shot 243!
