Should be a great combination with some Bullseye or Tite-Group ! !
I've been lurking on this sight for years, I finally joined. I figured I'd use my first post and swoop in on the last day of the month and win the photo contest :-)

The gun: Jack Huntington custom 500 Linebaugh Maximum
The bullet: Rob Applegate custom wadcutter 365gr
Dang that thing is amazing!
Old School goodness 38 Special match sixguns. A Smith and Wesson K-38 and a Colt Officers Model. Wadcutter is their fodder.
Great photos SteveM, and a very nice looking firearm. You have my vote!!!
Beagle 333 and Steven M tie, both great for different reasons.
Steven M's photos are very nicely composed with complimentary texture and colors of bullets with beautiful hardware and grips, well layed out with the color and grain of the wood background.... very well done.... eye candy indeed!
Beagle 333's photo stirred a different emotion: Solid soldiers standing sentinal in the late evening shadows, shouldering responsible protection for themselves and others. The soft light against the warm wood, the soft shadows against the hard lead made me think of the diciplined young men and women deployed overseas who should now be safely home.
Eye candy is like Christmas and it IS sweet, but I'll salute our kids in service...Beagle 333 has my vote.
Kinda different perspective, eh?
