<T. D. Clevenger>BF Arms 357 pistol
I recently traded for an older BF Arms pistol in 357Mag.
I picked a load from the Nosler manual and shot it today at 50yd.s. No special prep or anything, just loaded and went shooting.
The gun presently wears a 6X Tasco 30MM scope (I'd like a Simmons 2-7 for it).
I got two groups that were three shots all touching, but mostly two touching and one away from the group.
My question: What type accuracy should I expect from a single shot pistol in 357Mag.? Is the 357mag. cartridge capable of sub 1" groups at 50yds consistantly, or should I be satisfied with 2" group averages?
Thanks,
T.D.

MrUREasyTDC - I doubt any anything out there will do much better in .357 - maybe the trigger pull is a tad too heavy! Were you please with it?
