See this would be a good looking Break action in my book. Still have to deal with some little problems - but I could learn to like this one,,,

To much talk goes into shooting little groups from rifles by keyboard commandos

Accuracy is nothing more than being consistent, with the weapon, the load and the guy pulling the trigger.

Most people cant see the differance and if they can they need to contact top shot!!!

Practical accuracy is way more than enough for most folks!!!

Perfect! My plan is working.
Well I kinda like you Muley. But I like old smelly cheese and stinky Brussel sprouts also.


Sabotloader, that's not a break open. It's a falling block.

Sabotloader, if you want a conversion from a falling block action, John Moses Browning's 1885 design is the classiest one around. Of course, you would have to c0ck that hammer you dislike so much.

Do you want a cookie for pointing out the obvious??

I am not sure who you are calling a keyboard commando. Maybe we should only talk about topics of your choice. So please lay out the future topics so we can be sure to stay on topic. SHHEEESSSSHHHHH. Tom.

All I am saying is it doesnt matter what you shoot most will never get the full accuracy out of it

Plus..........not many can put the bullet exactly where they want it in a hunting situation. Even if the gun is the most accurate gun you can buy.

not in the field they wont. I even need shooting stix now due to lack of practice of off hand shooting. Im sure i could still hit a deer or elk off hand but when you can use a rest of any kind, do it! LOL.

I like my break actions.
