Range Day
I took the Gold Cup to the range this morning and am very pleased with it. I had been a bit concerned when it wouldn’t cycle a hollow point into the chamber at home. However, at the range, it had no problem with Winchester White box FMJ and JHP, Federal Personal Defense JHP and Remington HD JHP, all in 230 grain. In close to 200 rounds, there were no failure to feed or other malfunctions. I think that it is a keeper.
Shot at 25 yards:

Joe,
You should know by now you are as Ole as you Feel. So does mean you are shooting it from the Rocking Chair on your Front Porch with you Jug of Moon Shine? BTW I will pick it up for you, after you pay for the Work On It, and try out the new sights for you??????????

Heavens No! I might drop the jug...
 I have an old AF buddy in Milton and family in Mill Hall. When the Gold Cup is ready, I think that I will probably drive up to Watsontown myself and pick it up. But, thanks for the offer though.
