    Scored One of My Dream Guns

    Just got this yesterday. It is a really tight build. Rightly has a great reputation.

    Not only does it look gorgeous, I LOVE the generously sized grips -- you can surely put all fingers about it, below trigger finger, of course. I'd guess a Ruger's grip bottom would be just about where the screw is on your grips!
    CONGRATS! and best wishes with it!

    Caliber?

    It is a 357 as shown in the top picture on the barrel. I am green with envy.

    I killed a sleeping bag with a .454 FA--the flame cutting from the cylinder had to be seen to be believed. Sliced that old bag like a raz.or I believe that was the most accurate of-the-shelf revolver I ever fired. I think I'd like to have one, but these days I can't justify it: I can neither shoot straight enough nor afford to spend the dough. Still, I am envious.

    I had a Freedom Arms field grade 454 Casull 7.5 inch barrel with a spare cylinder in 45 Colt. The 45 Colt cylinder saw minimal use, lol.

    That gun was incredibly accurate and would shoot very well to 100 yards with the Lee 452-255-RF cast of 92/6/2 loaded over a very healthy dose of 2400 lubed with speed green. I miss that gun all the time and another one is on my list for later in life, but I'll go with a 5 1/2 inch barrel and a spare 45 acp cylinder this time around.

    This is gorgeous.

    I like the blue accents inside the paw reliefs on the cylinder, never saw that before that i can remember. Very subtle but adds to the beauty.
