I am new to the handgun world. I have a few rifles including a Bushmaster AR15. I recently picked up a S&W 686 Plus .357 Mag with a 4" Barrel. When I took it to the range I wasnt satisfied. I was shooting 1 foot groups at 25 yards with PMC 158 grain JSP ammo (.357). Is this normal? What, if anything could have caused this? It was not just this one time. This has happened the three times I have been to the range, indoor and out.

| 2 Things.....had poor luck with pmc ammo.....but that was years back........and a similar thing with one of my 44 mags.....was leaded up pretty bad.....and I thought that I had`nt shot it that much....anyway.....some serious scrubbing with the bench rest was needed.....I thought I was losing my abilities.....until I looked real good down the bbl.....mostly just passed the focing cone...as mentioned....this will do it to ya! |
Hey BE NICE..  . Ok...up to this point I had only been scrubbing with Break-Free CLP. I took some copper solvent to it yesterday and it seemed to clean out the bore really nice. I also ordered some Black Hills 125 grain JHP 357 rounds from www.georgiaprecision.com . We'll see if they are any improvements. I am crossing my fingers. Thanks for the advice guys.
