The more I shoot this revolver the better I like it. It's been one of the most accurate revolvers I've had to date and today it really showed it's stuff. I won't indicate all the specifics as I started a thread in another forum here but suffice it to say the Accurate Molds #43-260B has high praises for me and superbly accurate. I think I'm going to enjoy this mold and my M29-3 just loves it.

Got to love those older 29's they are a piece of art IMHO. I like the grain on your grips, not all are as nice as yours. What is the groove diameter and the throat diameter and what size do you size your boolits to? Some here would also want to know your alloy and lube details. Good luck and enjoy your hand cannon, after all Dirty Harry can't be wrong!

The groove diameter is .429" and the throats are .432" which is the size I size them to from a .4335" boolit as dropped from the mold. Usually, I use ww's plus about 3 oz of tin or 50/50 lead-Linotype. The groups I got today were from the ww alloy. Hope I "made your day":)

An accurate M-29 is an awesome piece of equipment
