New Acquisitions for December 2011

EAA Tanfoglio Witness Elite Limited in 9mm. Sick, sick gun!

No secret that I'm more of a rifle fan than handgun but December has to be in the running for the top month this year for some very cool handguns purchased!

Makes me wish we had a poll/voting system where we could gather info from 2011 regarding rifles, shotguns, and handguns that have been posted and have a contest for a winner in each category.
 
teaser picture. i'll upload more once the rest of the stock work is complete, and after I have Lou over @ Business End Customs give her a new paint job ;)

well, i suppose I can go a bit farther with the "teaser" pic now.

put the first 20 rounds through her today (wanted to get a benchmark before I bed the stock next week. it DOES have an aluminum v-block, but the contact points are minimal at best, and I do think I'll gain some repeatability with the bedding).

sighted in @ 100, dialed up 2MOA and shot a 5shot group @ 200yds (On a regular SR repair center, all I had available at the moment). shot with a "borrowed" box of Federal gold medal match 168's.

4 shots measure 0.48" center to center, my "flier" widens the group to 1.12".

I'm quite happy so far. just shy of 1/4MOA, flier makes it just a hair over 1/2MOA :)

**edit, uploaded a pic of the 100yd target as well. 5shots, measures 0.470" wide by 0.370" tall.

I'll start hand loading for it in a few weeks (gotta order some components), and I'll see what it can do @ 300/600yds (assuming the weather cooperates)

Atlas BT10 bipod (on BT15 rail, t-nuts expoxied and bedded into the aluminum bedding block)
