Here are a couple of my big bore...

Absolutely. I have several less practical calibers. The cost of my guns, Optics and reloading dies/materials, on average per firearms is about $2300.

Guncrafter is a great firearm. I had the...

You have the Guncrafter 1911 and the Glock Conversion for 50 GI. If you reload, you're better off with 45 ACP.

If you want 50 cal, there's the Desert Eagle or the S&W 500.

I have an Aimpoint H1 on my 454 7.5" Ruger Super Redhawk. I use a SS Weigand rail mount. I use the type of mount for the 460 XVR and 500 S&W. My 500 has a Primary Arms Adv Microdot that has been...

The best mag is the one that works in your 1911. I have Wilson, McCormick, Ed Brown and Kimber. They all work for me. But in my mars armament thug, only a Chip works.

I have Speer and Hornady XTP 350 gr. My powder is Win 296. I'm still working up my loads for the powder.

I'm using a 6.5" barrel.

I have some 500 gr Hornady XTP but they're a bit hot with...

I have owned and shot many different pistols. I shoot at least twice a week. I'll tell you I don't like the H&K, Beretta double action triggers. I liked the M&P and XD/XDM triggers but I preferred...

Great choice. I'm eyeing a 41 or 40 myself.

Thanks for the great input. I just considered it because I do shoot it well, but it is a bulky bugger.

I went to the gun show today, and I handled a lot of 44 Magnums. I'll reserve it for...

I'm just curious. I don't know if I'd ever carry a 44 Magnum for defense against 2 legged critters. But I'd like to hear some input and pics would be a bonus. I'm thinking 3-5" for a barrel.

The trigger pull of a revolver is much heavier and longer than a striker fired pistol. That may be the added safety of an XDM/XD as there are two requirements, pulling the trigger and the grip safety...

I've carried a 7.5" 629 in a Bandolier holster. I prefer 6-8" barrels for velocity. Particularly when in comes to taking care of large animals.

Ideal size/barrel length is something that feels...

There's a review about some issues with it on The Firing Line.

If I were in Commie-fornia, yes. I buy from individuals so the gun isn't even registered to me anyways.

Great post.

Out of the box, one of my best 3 shot groups from factory ammo was from a Ruger GP 100 from 10 yards, double action,...

Here are two of my 357 Magnums:
S&W Performance Center 627 8 shot 5" and 586 L-Comp 7 shot 3".

Then you can go...

I have two Taurus revolvers. 605 and a Tracker 922. Not bad but the S&W and Ruger are well above it in quality.

Resale for Taurus sucks, too.

I prefer 5-6" personally for those purposes. Anything longer becomes a bit ornery to control, unless we are talking 44 Magnum and above. In that case, the longer the better for the sake of maximum...

For 357 Magnum, you have a wide variety depending upon the size of your hands and the desire for a high capacity.

Medium Frame
S&W 686 6 or 7 shot
S&W 586 6 or 7 shot
Ruger GP100
Dan Wesson

I load 210s because of accuracy. So my 210 would be humane for a kill out to what distance?

I prefer The S&W action but there is a diehard group that prefers the prelock versions.

The S&W grips and workmanship are better.

I just got a Primary Arms Advanced Red Dot mounted on a Weigand Rail. I did 35 rounds yesterday. So far, so good.

As an aside, I have seen these torture tested. I have 7 others on different...
