Btw, you mentioned, .500 is too much. I think the same. Have you ever tried one ? (I have unfortunately not…) May? be .460, using .45 colt mostly.
A revolver is always a good choice, a? Smith and Wesson a excellent one. Like my .357, getting my .44 mid December.
I think you are using factory sights, ever thought of LPA sights? Think they are a superb improvement.
Great video! Looks like a great place to shoot.I agree? it is the Goldilocks gun:)
Great vid brother…….I need a? Cigarette after this vid..lol
Sweet! I’m getting a? S&W 629-3 on October 1st. Looking forward to it! What”dash” is this?
Haha.. the SW Goldie. Should be their next model.?
@lambdog76 - I use THE bullet for the 44 mag. The Elmer Keith designed 245 gr Linotype (#429421).? Powder charge is 20.5 gr of Alliant 2400 which yields around 1250 fps out of this 6-inch gun. According to ‘the book”, chamber pressure with this recipe should be about 37,000 CUP.
@sharkzf6 what load were you shooting? If hand load, you don’t have to dumb it down for me, weight grain, pressure would be fine.?
@tacbishop - Haha! Thanks for? watchin!
@TheDeadhead71 - Actually the second “face-on” series of shots was double action. I’ll do? a video explaining how to get the most out of your double action pulls…a trick I learned watching a Clint Smith video many moons ago
@lambdog76 - Yes, 6-inch classic…may favorite configuration! Thanks? for watchin bro!
That make me want? to cry looks like my grandmas 44…lol great shooting vid
44mag it the all time king of cartridges!?
@nbenicewicz - You’re? very observant, yes I am …
You right handed left? eye dominant?
The Goldie Locks? gun lol. That’s a 6 inch barrel?
I? want one
cool video. The only way I’ll shoot a sixgun is single-action style just like you did. That 8″ steel is a glutton? for punishment.
Awesome firepower my friend, banging that? steel for sure
awesome brother! Nice Ridgeline, just like mine but? different! (mines white)
