Sounds like the BB round might be good for woods use, but not the thing for normal carry.

If longer-range accuracy matters to you, wadcutters tend to be extremely accurate out to 50 yards, but groups open up significantly beyond that.

Roy was one of my very early mentors when I was a college student at San Diego State and he worked for San Diego PD. Roy took me to my first shooting match 30 years ago. He was freakishly fast and was very unconventional by shooting a 3" fixed sight K frame against all the guys with the long barrel adjustable sight guns. He was also a stellar cop and taught me that you could be a bad ass and tough cop and still treat people decent. The key was you had to be squared away on your shooting skills. Roy was a guy who excelled at talking crooks into the car, yet could go right to guns if needed. Stellar guy and a gift to the industry.Originally Posted by Chuck Haggard
Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

I instantly like that guy.
Thanks for sharing those memories and for praising a guy who should be praised. He made an excellent video also.
Yep.
Plus he got a lot better results than I did.

Not only is that nice shooting but the production values and Mr. Huntington's delivery were superb. They should be doing programs for Sportsman's or Outdoors channels.
Thinking some HiTS instructors and students would do very well on the tube...
No kidding!? Crazy small world. A good friend of mine lives near him now. Roy got him into building, and collecting, 1911's. Apparently Roy's collection of firearms is unbelievable.
I'm supposed to meet him as soon as we can get schedules to work out. I'm really looking forward to it.

Roy is one of the most genuinely neat, kind, practical, common sense guys in the industry and has done great with American Handgunner magazine.
He also had one of the best LE jobs ever for awhile. He ran a patrol boat in Mission Bay in San Diego for San Diego PD. Probably the coolest ride along I ever did was going out with him. It was hard going back to my world of ghetto graveyard. Roy seemed to also have a real knack for finding beautiful women in very small bikini's washing boats and yachts. He would get on the radio and tell his supervisor that he was checking gang activity at whatever boat slip they were at.......which I assume was code for the boss for where the hot girl boat washing crew was working. On the other hand, Roy could drive that Boston Whaler like a boss at speed in the open water responding to actual emergency calls.
