I know...crude title for this thread but it just rhymed so well!
I just got back from the range where I put a box of Winchester (white box) 230gr RN through my new Ultra Carry. I was expecting a lot more recoil than it produced and of course I anticipated the recoil....rookie mistake.
The first couple of magazines were low and left so I shot a couple off a rest to verify the sights. They are dead on so I figured I'm just pushing the trigger. I shifted my finger a bit on the trigger and got the "left" part out of the equation. By the time I finished the box of 50, I was hitting just slightly low, center at 7 yards.
I also shot a couple of magazines of my reloaded 230gr HP's and my grouping was a bit better, not great but better.....I can see I'm going to need a lot more practice with this gun!
Anyway, to summarize.....I shot just over 60 rounds through the gun with no misfires and no failures to feed or eject. The trigger is a bit gritty feeling but I'm sure it will smooth out with use. It's not as much of a handful as I expected and shoots better than I do! My overall impression is this is a very nice shooting gun and is only going to get smoother as I shoot it!
