God love and long live the 44-77!

I really do like that 77!!

For a light weight rifle with the standard barrel single trigger and cressent butplate it's a very good and pleasant rifle to shoot.
I have a feeling that the long nosed elliptical bullets are taking a beating when they drop back down to subsonic plus with then not holding in the lands they are not getting enough rotation to stay stable.
They probably whistle like a mimi ball shot from a smooth bore musket.
Carol once mentioned that she heard some of the bullets whistling when she worked the pit pulling the targets at Raton, but the once hitting paper went through straight and grouped good.
Still having a problem with some of the brass not extracting making it a bear shooting it during a match.
The reason a dog has so many friends is because he wags his tail instead of his tongue.
