    Yeah right you know my skills are unparalleled.

    But after seeing GHD's range, he could probably shoot that grouping at 400 yards..

    oh well.. [:)]

    I personally haven't had a problem yet with mine, but I've read that alot of people have problems with shells ejecting from the Handis..

    That is pretty nice. I still want to get one of those Handi-rifles in .243 or 25-06.

    Get either, cuz then you can just send it back to NEF and have the other barrel fitted, then once you have the two barrels, it only takes a minute to swap em, 2 guns in one. And the second barrel is like $70-$80 I believe. You can even get shotgun barrels.

    I would get a muzzleloading barrel for it as well.

    I wanted and got a NEF .410 for Christmas, Mostly wanted it for nostalga...I sold my first .410 and always wanted another. Anyway, the trigger on this new .410 is nice and crisp a little heavy, but no Ruger!!! I'm thinking I need one in .22 Hornet.
