    My "Snake" is a 4" and is very accurate. I also have shot it heavy and light....

    Attachment 265448

    The Ruger FTBH is also wonderfully accurate, especially with Keith's load....

    Attachment 265449

    The old Hawes I've had for 52 years....many heavy and light loads....mostly just gets Skeeters 44 SPL load anymore.

    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

    The Ruger is a handy packing pistol. The 44 Taurus makes a good 44 special, but the big Smith is my favorite.

    A 5" 629-5, a 6.5" 629-5 with a small Primary Arms red dot, a new Rossi '92 with a 2x scout scope, and an early 80s Marlin with an aperture sight. My almost mag is one of the 696s (no dash) with Magna-Porting sold by Lew Horton. Only 286 of those were made and would be the very last of mine to be let go. GF

    Super Blackhawk, 10.5" barrel, Houge grips, Wolff spring kit, Weaver mount, Nikon 2x scope all on their first outing at the range yesterday. It's been sitting alone inthe safe for nearly a year.

    Using some old handloads of doubtful accuracy I have the scope and POI at the same place on the target. It's a good start though arthritis and recoil don't go together very well.

    Attachment 265547Attachment 265548Attachment 265550 Here you go. The Bisley is a John Gallager gun that has the sweetest action I ever felt. The SRH is the old gun that I Lauer Coated and has the scope (2x Leupold) off at the time of this pic. The 629 is my favorite piece for just about anything
    IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us!
