Got out to my range and after chronographing many rounds and testing my sights, I took her to the long range. To my surprise, I managed to ring the gong 4 or 5 times and hand many many close misses in fairly challenging conditions. The winds were gusting from right to left and then swinging round from my right to quarter from 5 o'clock to 10 o'clock. I'm sure on a calm day and with a scope, some of my stout 357 Magnum loads with H110 could ring the 300 yard gong all day long ... at least that's my theory and one I will test in the future once this Canadian weather moves out in a few weeks

Exactly ... now to fix this ejector spring so it will stop sailing them 15-20 feet over my right shoulder ... I managed to lose 6 cases (brand new Starline brass).

The GP-100 trigger job is amazing ... 2.5lb single action and an astounding 7lb 4oz. double action pull ... simply amazing! I love this pistol!
