I have the same one. Very pretty and shoots great. It's kind of tough to get Lipsey's stuff in Canada but one of our importers has an in. He's pricey but he does get some cool stuff!!!

Thanks for all of the offers and ideas, everyone. I definitely have more to consider here. You've given me a lot to think about.

Question, gents......
Is there enough room in the magazine to load the American .450BM "long"?? The thought of loading up an appropriate sized 500+ grain boolit at 900-1000fps is...

I kind of do this now with a Lyman 462540 boolit. I cut and trim the case back so it crimps in the right spot on the slug and not halfway up the nose. This way I have the correct OAL for my Guide...

I bought a case of these about 18 months ago from a local shop. He blew them out at $200/case. Seeing what this stuff sells for now, I wish I'd bought more.....
