A friend has one that I've put maybe a hundred rounds thru. It feels like a double stack 1911 and shoots as nice as it looks.

Another reason is that curved glass makes for a quieter cab. After spending a full day in a tractor cab, this becomes very important.

I use the term "render" as in I rendered those wheel weights down to ingots.
The definition of render is "to melt or to combine elements".
Just thought I'd add this to the discussion.. :)

Google Howards Feed-n-Wax. They have a product that takes the white rings out. The feed-n-wax works really good on woodwork and gunstocks too.

I sit. I have an old office chair that I can adjust the height as needed and a leather apron that hangs around my neck and drapes over my lap. That set up has worked for me for quite a few years.

I've used the TB, H110 and the H4227. I think you'll find the 500 is really pleasant to shoot with the Unique loads. I keep 50 of each of my loadings ready to go. When somebody new wants to shoot it,...
I had to have a 500 when they were introduced. Over the years I've found TrailBoss loads are very mild and shooting buddies ask me if I put any powder in these loads. They splinter bowling pins just...
