I have an M11A1 in layaway jail, hope it turns out to be cast friendly.

I'm a BHP fan so I would say SA-35. If poly frames and strikers are not completely out of the question, I will say my three S&W SD-9's and my 100% stock gen.5 Glock 19 are all very cast friendly.

This 100%. I only keep the middle finger inside the loop because I have big hands and it gets crowded otherwise. You can still work the lever quickly and can use the thumb to assist by pushing the...
Yes, I would agree with you there. I only use sights on handguns.
My one gripe about the 686 is no half lug option. Full lugs are just needless extra bulk and look unfinished to me.
Strangely, I can shoot a tiny handgun as good or better than a fullsize even though I have large hands. I guess it makes sense, given I practice with my CCW guns more than the range guns.

Far as I know, the .30-30 rifles always used a stronger grade of steel than those chambered in the older, originally blackpowder cartridges (.38-55, .32-40, etc.). I would shoot the rifle with cast...

Glad to hear it, enjoy! I gave my Henry H001T some exercise yesterday and was reminded why I love that gun so much. It'll give most sporter bolt action .22's a run for their money.

Tried out tac-22's in my Henry H001T yesterday. They group as well as my usual Thunderjams and Aguila Super Extra, but POI is seriously 2.5" low. Yeah, don't think I'll be buying more of these. They...
I shoot nothing but standard pressure .38's so the extra weight and strength of the SP is not needed.
Thanks, I appreciate the info. The PSA's are reportedly as good as FN and in fact FN considers them to be the current OEM for the Baby Browning.
I wonder if there have been any real life shootings with the .410 handgun specific loads? My MIL has a single shot .410 shotgun as her only gun and I bought her some Hornady CD to keep with it.
If I found a pearl grips Bauer in good shape I would buy it for the wife.
Those old polished Taurus and Rossi wheelguns are some fine side-irons for sure.
The Sixes are my favorite wheelguns of all time. My 1988 Service Six .38 stainless is one of the last handguns I would ever part with. I don't even shoot it that much, but it is just such an...
I'm sure that is the case and I have known alot of folks who loved the SP. Still, I think it needs to go on a diet as does the GP. Both are just too firggin' heavy for what they are in my opinion...

My Tac-22 is sitting in the garage for casual practice. I figure if I'm making a 3" group with it then that should translate to 1" with my usual ammo.

My Henry loves 12-13 grains Unique under the Lyman 292 and pretty much every other boolit I've tried. If that charge plus a properly fitting boolit doesn't shoot well then you have problems other...
We sell a ton of Judges at my side job shop but always to folks who seem less than knowledgeable about guns and ammo. I imagine most of them think they are getting full length barrel .410 shotgun...
Mebbe I just got a lemon, but the SP-101 I used to have was the worst handgun I've ever owned and it was an "old" WBR era gun that everybody says is so wonderful. Light springs only produced misfires...

Tac-22 totally sux in my new Super Wrangler, biggest groups of anything I've tried so far.
Been shooting and carrying my 856 alot lately. With reduced power trigger return spring from Wolff it has an excellent trigger in both single and double action. That said, mine is a steel frame and...
