The reviewer conducted accuracy tests with 55-grain Hornady, 69-grain Sierra MatchKing, and 77-grain Sierra MatchKing ammunition, noting disappointing performance across all loads, with the 69-grain SMK showing the best but still poor results. The barrel was purchased on sale for $50, and expectations were low but not this low.
