Figured I'd pose this to you guys before I just get rid of this dang thing... I've got the rossi circuit judge, the rifle/shotgun version. It fires .45 long colt and .410 shotgun shells for those of you who aren't familiar.
it has an 18.5 inch barrel with a 1 in 18 twist to it.
I have tried 185 grain 1150fps ammo, as well as 225 grain 900fps ammo, plus a few "cowboy" loads that I don't know exactly what they are... the gun is pretty decent at 25 yards (so is a slingshot though) at 50 yards I'm getting about 10 inch grouping. At 75 yards I can't reliably hit the paper on a 100 yard rifle target. Never even tried it at 100 yards since 75 is so bad.
all of this was shot with a scope from a rest, so it's not me and I have since put the scope on a gun that I know shoots good to test it out, scope is fine.
any suggestions for improving this thing's accuracy? I can group better with a good handgun than this thing... which doesn't stand to reason since the barrel is longer...
