Nice work on those targets TB, it will only get better! I went to a small local gun show today and the only thing of interest to me was a nice magazine that fits the Challenger,Nomad,Medalist which I lost no time acquiring

When you start trying to find/buy one you will realize just why I have this big possibly permanent smile on my face! Regards

Oh, is that all? One of those kind of mags eh? Like trying one to use in a High Standard that works. Have one original and one aftermarket for my JCHiggins Model 80 that work. Probably tried another half dozen or so that never would work and returned them and just gave up and use the 2 that I have.You know that gun need a range trip in the near future before it's feeling get hurt. Stopped at the gun shop and bought nothing the co-owner gave me a box of Aquila Centurion to try and give him a report on, like 2 bucks a box stuff.

I sold my HS Sport King to fund my Challenger. The Challenger is not finiky on the mags, they are just expensive and hard to find. The Challenger actually has a feed ramp which in my opinion the HS lacks, which makes it necessary to tune the mags to each individual HS pistol. I'll bet the Aquila ammo is good, I'll be looking forward to your range report. Regards

If it gets warm enough next week we will try it in the Henry and the DSP, both guns are known good shooters.
