couple strikers 243, 308 and 501 in 22lr. My 501 got banned from the local 22 rifle sillywet matches, guess the rifle persons didn't like getting beat by an old guy with a pistol.:violin:. The range has a couple of pistol silly wet matches , but I mostly shot the other two at those. along with the xp's and tc's.

This made me smile!
Sux, but funny at the same time.

Had to chuckle myself.
30-40 years ago the center fire bench rest guys started building some really nice bench rest pistols and some of the top shooters were getting on board. Didn't take long for the rules comity to ban them.

By the time I purchased my first striker I had 4 xp's. For hard pounding field use I prefer the striker in its factory stock. You could drop it on the ground run it over and it won't hurt it.

Sold one striker and kept the one with the light smooth trigger pull. Going on 7 months ago, a pistol stock shop told me they would ship in Jan/24. Even paid in full in advance. Haven't seen it yet. But my check got cashed.
