RE: Dedicated Slugger vs. ML
The only ML I own is a Knight USAK. I had taken it out for several range sessions without much luck until I found the combination it liked. Now I'm shooting 3 holes touching each other at 100 yards. Only my Tikka T-3 comes close to that. Here in LA I can hunt with ML 1 week before gun season and 1 week after gun I've been tempted to bring it out during gun season, but haven't talked myself into giving up the follow up shot. BTW it only cost $99 new at Wal-mart and I got it free for helping a guy out with a radiator swap. Without a doubt the cheapest gun I own and most accurate to boot. Sooner or later I'm going to upgrade the Simmons 8-point scope sitting on top of it, but for now why fix what isn't broken.
