I recently bought a gun that fits your description. 6.5" 3 screw 357, shows wear but no pits etc. for $300 from a local dealer in SC.

I just finished using up a box of 125gr hornagay xtp's over a compressed load of h110 as called for in the hodgon data. I thought it was fast load until I shot a few of the 110gr xtp's over the max load of h110 called for by hodgon. Mostly shot the 125's from my 6.5" blackhawk, with one...

I've got some of the remington and some of the speer. Both seem to shoot about the same, but I'll stick to the speer in the future. The remingtons are very messy, because of the gooey lube they use, to work with.

3" model 60 is available with adjustable sights.

So far I'm a happy camper with my 10-40x50 Osprey It's not a $1000 scope which I can't afford. It is a very good value for the $180 I spent at a local gun shop for it. The local shop offered an over the counter exchange if I had problems. I have it mounted on my anshutz 64 I've owned since it...

Here is my 642 and my wife's 640 along with my ubg belt and holsters.

Here are a couple shots of the bench I just finished. Wife said it had to look like furniture if I wanted it inside the house. :) It's made from pallet and skid wood, mostly oak, no parts were longer then three feet. It cost about $75 to build, mostly for the drawer slides, finish, and plastic...

I mostly load 148gr hbwc for the 38 with 2.9 or 3.0 bullseye, and I've found plenty of other 38 load formulas for the other bullets I have on hand. I'm shooting these in a 642 and a 640. I'm using factory Speer gdhp Short barrel 38+p for carry ammo in these two snubbies. I just got a 3screw...

I'm new to handloading. So far I'm loading 357 and 38 on my Lee 50th kit. I've been searching for loads using Herco and cast bullets for the 357. Is it ok to substitute a bullet of the same weight and type for another with the same powder charge and primer? Example: Are 158gr cast swc...

Elbow height while standing, I'm 5'6" and the bench is about 35", same as my woodworking bench. I mostly use a stool.
