Old School Specialty Pistol...You can do WHAT with a 1911 frame?

[xphunter]

Wasn't really sure where to post this, since it is a 1911 frame, but it is definitely not a semi-auto:p
Finally being able to get a Pachmyer Dominator, has been a handgun that I have wanted since they first came out.
This one started out life is a 308 Winchester. Factory barrel shot very good.
I had it re-barreled to 6.5 Creedmoor.
Chris Rhodes/Bayside Custom Gunworks did all the custom work on this, and the trigger pull is fantastic for a 1911. Scope is a long eye relief Leupold.
I chronographed it with the 140 grain A-Max/H-4350/Fed primers/Hornady brass, and then proceeded to verify my drops out to 500 yards.
At 100 yards I used my MINI rest with the small field bag.
Zeroed my turrets, and then shot from the standing position using Bog Gear and I shot at 200 yards, 250 yards, 300 yards, 350 yards, 400 yards, and 500 yards.
Video of shooting at 500 yards is the link below

I had a lot of fun shooting this handgun.
