Just bought a used NMSB. 98% finish, beautiful mid 80's Blackhawk. Glad to have it, sold my .357 BH a few years ago and missed having a single action. Put my Weaver 301 and my Burris 2x scope on it. Using it on a hog hunt in Florida next month.
I will be reloading down the road, but have been practicing with AE 240 gr HP's and Magtech 240 gr SJFP which I plan to use on the hunt.
Issue is that I was getting a single shot out of a group of 6 thrown high and to the left, about 2-3 off at 50yds. I marked the cylinder and it seems to be a single chamber causing the issue.
The good news is with that chamber out of the mix its shooting 1.5 to 2.5" groups at 50yds.
What would it take to fix this issue, and is it even worth it? I plan on just loading 5 for hunting for now.
I do need to work on the trigger,breaks clean but the pull is a little steep.
Its easy to shoot with the weight of the scope and the mild magtech factory loads.
Thanks.
