Winchester 67 reviseted

Well I got the marbles front and rear sights on her earlier this year, but have not had a chance to shoot her with them yet. With the old sights she was shooting a dimed size group at 25 yards with Remmy or Winchester shorts. And about a quarter sized group with thunderbolts. It absolutely hates Stingers or Velocitors. Thinking about trying some subsonics with it and see how it does. The barrel is pitted badly on the outside, but the bore is beautiful, and with the old sights she shot consistantly to the left. About an inch to the left at 25 yards, and about 2 1/2 inches left at 50 yards. We will see how the new sights do as I am about to start 22 plinkin again.

Anybody got any good ammo suggestions for this old gun? Doesn't appear she likes the faster stuff at all, and I don't know much of what to look for in the slower stuff.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
