[QUOTE="James41, post: 2951715, member: 2560"] Ok Drury, I finally made it out to the range with the RAP 45 and had a chance to run a few more rounds through it. I wouldn't consider it broke in by any means yet as it has only about a total of 70 rounds through it now, but i think it is giving a pretty good indication of what it will be like once fully broken in. I was shooting some of my reloads which were 200gr FMJRN using 5.2gr of Hodgdon Titegroup that i have had good luck with over the last 10 years. I used two magazines, one 10 round and one 7 round for a total of 17 shots. The shots were done draw from an IWB holster and shoot. Nothing speedy as at 79 i am kind of wobbly and certainly no speed ball. I did however have a double tap in there as you can see from that one hole on the far left...:blush: As for the one on the far right...what can i say, i got in to big a hurry...:ooh2:All in all i am quite pleased with the gun. It shot quite well and will certainly out shoot me as i have never been a real good shot anyway. All shots were done at 10 yards.
