That's actually pretty attractive.

You did work! Good job..

Bushnell makes some very nice dot sights. I bet that thing shoots pretty nice.

Range report??!

It shoots pretty well.
Very reliable and about 6" 5 shot groups at 100 yards occasionally a little better with animal brand ammo.
I think the red dot has a 3" MOA dot so I can shoot as well or better with the iron sights.
A couple years ago I had a primer blow out and bend the firing pin.
Changed out the pin and It's been problem free since then.

Pretty cool..

Was the blown primer Tula/Herter's ammo? Do you remember which brand?

I usually use animal brands as well, never had a problem.

It was Russian steel case ammo.
If I remember it was older stuff without any animal logo on the box.

Ah gotcha. I read somewhere wolf had a crappy batch some time in the early 2000's. Possibly it. Then again that can happen with alot of ammo.

I fear squibs. I never want to experience that.
