After waiting way to long to own a .41 I have too many now. If I had shot a 41 mag side by side with a 44 years ago I would not have gone down the 44 road.
I was chasing 375 super mag a few years...
Take advantage of the Redhawk cylinder length.
The FA 357 is not your daddy’s or grandpas 357. The Redhawk strength wise should be close.

Ken warned me years ago to stock up when I could. So I got in the habit of spending a weekend a month chasing around tire shops and scrap yards. Early morning I would have a box of donuts to give...

What do you do when you come home from work and there are buckets in the drive way?

After having played with a TC 10” 357 magnum for a number of years I moved on to a 6” GP 100 and FA in 357 magnum. The GP will tolerate the heavies, though they can be unpleasant as standard every...

If you lube cases when forming,just lube at the web and keep it off the body.

On mold choice, I have to say go with one of the customs and save a bunch of cussing. I have multiples of several molds that were supposed to be “the” holy grail, under sized,oversized,nose and...

As many Contenders that were on the line during the hay day of IHMSA, I will say it is not a gun problem. Thousands of people millions of rounds.

I am like the rest here for the most part, I shop hard. The blasted tax has me ticked off. Ordering online saves me from driving to go pick up supplies is about it. It may save me from impulse buys...

I have handled two of them. The squared edges I am not a fan. The wrist is also funky as it just doesn’t feel right. I think it is a good idea but could sure use a lot more refinement by a shooter. ...
SIG 238 Legion. I am a wheel gun man at heart and had sworn off of semi autos. Time will tell if it gets swapped for a small frame revolver. It sure carries nice though.

I did as KCSO did for not having to remove much. Just plowed it off with carbide then cleaned it up.
SIG Legion 238. Has ate everything factory I have fed it. From what I have rad they are some what of a clone of a Colt Mustang.

Actually just tagging in to get on page 41.
Picked up an FA 41 mag, the Blackhawk Hunter is going to find a new home.

Forum: Hunting with CB's
I like the 357. I was assured for years it was just border line for deer, so I never really was amused and stayed with the .44.
Started casting, 357 TC was at hand. I have found the 35’s easy to...

I chased accuracy around for some time when I first stepped into CB’s. SR4759 solves my problems. A B&M powder measure is the only one I trust to drop consistent with it and other stick powders.

I also have a Finn. They are not cheap, but shoot really well. I put the K31 at the top then the Finn. All the rest of my milsurps drop in after that.

Three of us in a blind with a rolling door on the front. One of the largest canadas I have ever killed dropped on the door. Totally wrecked it, bent 1x1x1/8 angle iron sheared off several 5/16 bolts....
Shot shell loads, 38/357 are better than 22. I had a lot of fun playing around with them. I found a Blackhawk that had been carried a lot and shot very little, 45 Colt. Complete game changer with...
