A (quiet) day at the range ...



In the cow pasture documenting a problem with the new can on a (UMAREX) "Walther" PPK/s .22 ...

Note - used same low, centered point of aim as earlier. Also, note one full keyhole - AT 7 yards!

(uppermost left) and partial (one up from bottom).

10. Detail of muzzle end cap showing no burrs or deformation -

The Sparrow performs well on the AR-7 and shows no deformation from off axis bullet strike. The Sparrow substantially changes the point of impact on the PPK/s and the keyholing rounds make for a useless gun accuracy wise.

It’s a nice, quiet can, BUT I look forward to resolving this problem.
