yes i bought a youth model before the pa. season started after my s&w broke and have not had much time to do any shooting with it.i shot with a dirty barrel with both the hevi 7's and the fed 7's with a ballistics 554 and it liked the hevi 7's better. i have an ic 555 to try out of it when i get a chance.funny how same choke,different gun how they shoot so different.i was averaging in the 170's with the ballistics in the smith with the feds.i really like the gun,can't wait to do a cleaning and see what happens.
