Re: shooting 9 mm rimfire from a 16 ga

Quote:

I've got some shotshells in 9mm (CCI #12 shot) and 357mag (CCI #9 shot) but I haven't tried them yet.

I have tried Winchester 22LR ratshot (#12 shot) on close-up targets (maybe 6ft away) and the spread was quite large, as expected from a rifled barrel. The target was a ply backing board and a few pellets actually bounced off and hit me in the ankle - ouch, but no penetration luckily.

I've got a couple of 12guage adapters - one in 22LR and one in 357mag. It'll be interesting to try the shotshells in them but I'll need to buy a shotgun first.




please buy yourself a shotgun, makes me nervous to know there is a man without who may need it maybe tomorrow.
please shoot like me standing 6 meter from the target and put a folding ruler on the paper when making the pic so the viewer can compare the pattern with my pics.


"As to your adapters where did you get those from?
Interesting concepts using those."

for some time you get the chiappa inserts here, looks like they are made in italy.

if legal under your gun law you make such things on a lathe.
