@halfmoonclip, exactly. The few cartridges I've shot through my ROA were loaded with black powder or light loads of Trail Boss. But a lot more lead over black powder in the original cylinder.

I assume you're using a conversion cylinder. My ROAs have only seen lead, even when shooting cartridges. No point in stressing it. That's what the Blackhawk is for. 😉

I bought an inexpensive thumb stop for the AR pistol ... and my MI folding front sight finally arrived. Now to get it to the range.

Original Ruger PC4 (eventually sold the second, too) Pre-lock S&W 317 (plan to keep the second; took a long time to find one) Lots of Marlin lever guns because I want to like levers. They’re all gone now.

Toy guns as a kid, but we lived in a metro area and my family wasn't into guns. I had opportunity to shoot a bolt action .22 a couple of times at a friend's farm, but nothing regular. I tried out for the rifle team in college and did well. That sort of whet the appetite, but again, I didn't...

Looking good! Anticipating your range report …

@Pat Riot, you just explained why my wife often looks at me funny. I've even been known to stop a streaming movie to scroll back and show her the error. She's very patient, even though she does roll her eyes sometimes. 🙄

Well, after multiple emails from DACK Outdoors telling me "Your order is now processing," they appear to have canceled my order without notice or explanation. Saw the credit on my card statement. I know from experience they can be slow, but they've always delivered before. So I had to place a...
