Am going to change bands and pouch and see if that makes any difference. What ammo you hunt with ? 9.5 ? Edited June 4, 2022 by Leo Sayer Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fred90 3,230 Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 I only have nick hegarty frames, find them spot on with precise bands and. 9.5mm steel. always shoot ttf, I think there is far more hand slap with ott Quote Link to post Share on other sites
