Emailed STI last night and they responded this morning. There Customer Service seems to be good. Here is what they said about the few failures. . .
"The Wolf ammo sucks don't shoot it. The fail top close is a problem we are
looking into currently. I have had a few other people contact me about
the same problem. The engineering department is looking at heavier
springs for the recoil master. It does appear to get better as the gun
breaks in, but is an area that needs improvement. I will keep you
posted. If the guns fails to start running better I will make
arrangements to fix it."

So back to the range with nothing, but the white box to see what happens.

Amen,

I was thinking about PM-ing the man for lessons!

I don't "double tap" beyond 7 yards. In fact, I'm not sure I could be that accurate at 25 feet (let alone yards).

Note to self: (Be very, very, friendly to Carlson1). :grin:


Good shooting!

I corrected the shooting. It is 25 feet not yards. I wished I could do that at 25 yards. I have lost ability since my health went south. I look at my typing sometimes and I think my mind is gone south.
