Hello to all, been reading up on the 450 b here, I get to go try mine this w/e. I couldn't find ammo here so I got 4 boxes from midway, should be a good start on a brass stockpile for when I get around to getting dyes so I can reload. I got the upper from midway a couple of weeks ago, just to busy to shoot it. Hopefully I will have more to post Monday. I put a EOTech holographic sight on it, want it to be my night time hog gun. I'm off to the woods.

Welcome aboard and good luck this weekend. No hogs up here, so no hog season. Waiting for early November with bated breath.

Welcome,... and please report your results. I've been considering one of those laser genetics to work on yotes at night here.

Me too! Really been looking hard at the ND3X50. Supposedly the yotes cant see the beam. Also could pull double duty as an emergency bush/hunting signaling device.

I fired 12 rounds sunday morning, 5 at 20 yards, 6 at 100 yards and then the last at 20 yards. Most of my hog hunting is at nite, and shots are 40 yards or less generally. Anyways the last 4 at 100 yards were exceptional. 3 touching and 1 about an inch to the left. I'll post a picture of the target when I can get to the scanner. I thought the recoil was tolerable and the accuracy from the factory ammo exceptional. I really like this set up.

here is the target, I lost a hole , I thought the prepunched hole in the center was the fourth shot, now I don't know where it went since I destroyed the evidence.
