| Ok, forgive my lack of knowledge or terminology, 2X6 rounds? Also, what ammo did you use? Or is that what the 2X6 rounds description is? Again, forgive or rather excuse my lack of knowledge and lack of terminology. Either whay wun, great shooting. Also, what were/was the weather conditions at the time?

| I used a '94, .45 Colt, for about 8 years and shot fine with it. I now have a '73 rifle, W-W clone, that was slicked up when I bought it. If you get the chance try a '73. They have the reputation of being the slickest, fastest of the leveractions, I believe it. BTW, does your '94 have a Buckhorn rear sight? They work very similar to a peep sight. They really increase your speed too.

Standard sight is a Buckhorn and that is what I use for rapid fire but I also have a Lyman peep sight on the tang. | |

| The Lyman peep is a great precision sight. I took many deer with that '94. I wish I had kept it just for hunting. They are great carry guns, much easier to tote than an assualt rifle.
