Well obviously they are really hard cus they is machined! :mrgreen: ive had 6 HiPoints, they have all been reliable and trust worthy.
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!

It seems that they may be able to survive a lot of abuse.
