Sounds like you got it figured out...but Wilson will re chamber the 625 to fit Rowlands also.
............sorry not Wilson but Clark Custom guns...$100.

My 4" Smith 28 is easily the best .357 I've shot. I thought I was through with .357s. I figured why not just shoot the .44? Well, then I found this smooth as SILK 28 locally and bought it. It...
Just get what you like the size and function of. If you are going to hand-load you can load some lighter loads until you figure out your grip and how to manage the recoil. Most here have figured...

I love low power scopes, too...but not for smaller critters in cover. Sometimes it's hard enough identifying a coyote when they're active in lower light, but add weeds and brush and it's easy to...
You couldn't give me one. It's like your momma used to say, "wear clean underwear every day, cuz if you don't you might die and then someone will find out." That's how it is with this gun. If you...
I can't get past the mudder tires on the BBQ trailer. To me seeing mudders on a trailer is as wrong as most of these pistols.

You could also put on an Aimpoint Micro with a 3x magnifier behind it. That gets a little pricey, but if you have another gun to flip-flop them around on, it may be economical.
I guess for a pickup...

Treetop...excellent rifles.
Even more important, excellent job leading your family. I hope in about 30 years I'll be doing the same thing with my grandchildren (my oldest child is 8).

there's a Bisley, too.
painful at $750, though. Maybe you can find cheaper. The 4 5/8" is only $507 on GB....

Generally speaking, there are two categories of terminal bullet performance: expansion and penetration.
The perfect expanding bullet penetrates well then releases LOTS of...

I have a P-12 which is a compact 12 shot 45, I think the same as the modern warthog, I could be wrong. The P-12 functions very well when clean. After 50-100 rounds it can't be trusted. It also...

I like the 45 colt or 44 mag choice. You'll never get that power out of a .357, but as you know you can make them as dainty as a 38 if you want. I've never considered reliability issues. I have a...
Wow. I'm really surprised at the amount of expansion vs penetration. If it was hit from 100+ yards I wouldn't expect much penetration, but not much expansion either.
But really 44man, I don't...
Probably an oversimplification, but... XTPs for hunting, Gold.Dot for home defense, as they are supposed to expand at lower velocities.
see Youtube videos by tnoutdoors9, lots of gel expansion...
Do your groups begin to open up with the higher velocity? I'd make sure the leading is actually affecting performance before changing things.
XDs. It is so easy to carry. You can shoot it accurate and fast, slick little piece.
I think a few wraps of duct tape ought to keep 'er down.
I wouldn't change if you're not having issues.
I use Federal for hunting loads. My impression is that they're softer. At least in small primers I'm sure they are, as my Python will only fire...

Echoing what 9.3 just said. I have one from Japan in 44 mag. Occasional sub 2" groups, always under 4". The rifle is spectacular, really the nicest levergun I own. I consider it my smoothest and...

I've thrown all my nickel .357 brass away. It is some cracking, neck splitting stuff right there. That's where I'd start if I were you.
FN... I think my "wants" and "needs" don't line up too well. I know a newer revo may have more accuracy potential and could be more durable. But I want recessed chambers. Oh, poor me. I think...
