Heritage Rough Rider .22LR/.22 Mag Maiden Voyage

Well, the boy and I took the Heritage single-action out for a shoot on Saturday. It performed to expectations. We were mostly shooting at cans and bottles, but at one point I paced off ten strides from a paper target and, shooting offhand, was able to put all six shots into a group you could cover with a quarter. Group was about an inch and a half low, but next time we go out we will take a file and dial it right in.

The group was shot using CCI standard-velocity LRNs ($3.99 per box of 50 at the shop where we bought the revolver).

Haven't tried it with Magnums yet. Probably we should do that before getting out the file.

That's promising!

I have shied away from the Heritage line but, based on yours, it looks like simple prejudice.

Your shop had SV .22's?!!? They have been unobtanium here'bouts and crazy expensive on GB.
