I picked up a 6" 14-6 at Wannenmachers (just how is that spelled, anyway?) a few weeks ago. There's alot going on here, but I managed to get out behind the barn today, with a few cartridges. Somewhat rushed, I really just wanted to see how it felt.
Okay, enough excuses.
Very first shots I fired from this weapon. 148Gr Hornady HBWC, 2.5Gr Bullseye, S&P SPP. Seated flush, very slight crimp - really just ironed out the bell.
12 rounds, offhand, single-action, 7 yds.
Had 9 rounds left, used them double-action, offhand, same same.
I think I'll keep it.
I need some trigger time, from a rested position. No reason this can't stack 'em all in one hole from 25 yds, except that it's me shooting it.
