[QUOTE="Donald, post: 902884, member: 5934"] I have a Handi Ultra in 223. Heavy barrel. Got it about 3-4 years ago. I spent countless hours trying to make it shoot under 1 moa. Nada. Even built a new forearm with a different attachment point on the barrel. Did a trigger job on it. Now breaks at about 1 3/4 lbs, very nice. Big problem with most break open single shots is they are very sensative about where you rest the forend on the bags, since the forend is attached to the barrel. Also they(at least mine) is very long throated. Cannot reach lands with a bullet seated in the case. Not good for accuracy. They are fun to shoot and don't cost too much. Generally speaking you are looking at 1 to 1.5 inch groups at 100 yds. For some strange reason mine seemed to like the Winchester 45 grain JHP in the white box. Used to buy them, 40 rounds to the box for about $12. My how times do change so fast. My gransons love to shoot it. [/QUOTE]
