I gave one of the ladies small piece of a cardboard with waguns.org address and told her that this is a good place to learn about guns.

Went to Champion Arms this noon. While I was waiting for the lane, some lady called RSO and asked if she can come, pay range fees, buy ammo and keep it. Apparently there is the ammo shortage everywhere again.
I brought my CP-33, SUB-2000 gen. 2 and my EDC G26, of course. Have shot 300 rds of .22 and 100 rds of 9x19.
Man in his 60s next lane came with two aged ladies - obviously newbies. I have learned that pistol “clips” hold “bullets” and those better be hollow points, otherwise they will not stop people on meth or cocaine, etc. He was so loud and full of himself, so I almost puked up my breakfast.

How did the CP-33 run? I have one on a forever backorder.

My 2007 Marlin Guide Gun loves the Remington 405 cowboy loads.
Can cloverleaf 3 at 100 yards all the time with the Leupold Variax III 1.5-5 low mount on it.

1873 H&R Officers Model trapdoor isn't far behind it, has the flip up tang sight.
With various cowboy loads I hit a 6" gong 18 or so times in a row at 123 yards up a hill.
Would have kept going but I ran out of ammo.
I don't shoot my 1886, it's a NIB 1/1000 High Grade and don't want to scratch it. Hahaha

The 405 cowboy loads are accurate but do have a rainbow trajectory.

The Hornady 325 Leverrevolution nipple tips are pretty flat but not as accurate in my rifles.

You're modern 1886 (Miroku) can handle all the hot 45-70 loads.
Except they are short chambered.
Some won't fit. I found that out with HSM 430 gr +P hard cast Bear Loads.
I'm by no means a recoil wimp (have a safari rifle collection), but those above bear loads in the little guide gun make me say OW! every time.
