    cylinder throat reaming?

    I have a blackhawk bisley with .45c and .45 acp cylinders. through plenty of reading it seems almost a rule that the chamber throats are undersized and in need of reaming to provide the best accuracy least amount of leading with lead bullets. my question is should i attempt this myself, or...

    What .44 Magnum is the most fun?

    aren't 30-30 and .45-70 chamber pressures less than .454 casull? also, from what i've read BFR frames and internals are the same as rugers and cast by the same company.

    What .44 Magnum is the most fun?

    The one on the right is a 3.75" super blackhawk in .44 mag with the bisley grip. Plenty comfy for all day shooting with magnum loads, and tons of fun. Much more enjoyable to shoot than a friends 4" 629,and he agrees. I don't have one (yet), but a super redhawk is on my short list. just...

    oops...missed the 'double action' part the first time around. here's my gp100 with both compact and full size grips, both with macassar ebony inserts, one satin and one gloss.

    Slim Jim 1858 rig

    still very much enjoying the crossdraw three persons you made for my 3.75" bisley super blackhawk. hoping to have you do something for my 5.5" bisley convertible at some point.

    GP100 5" OR 686 4" or 6"?

    not sure where you are sourcing them, but gunbroker shows about $100 difference between the two. with regard to the transfer bar, i don't even notice it in mine. never even thought twice about it.

    Current Blackhawk .357s

    I have several blackhawks, the most recent being a stainless .45 bisley convertible. as mentioned, put your hands on one in person if possible. i have had issues with a few i've ordered sight unseen, that required a trip back to ruger. however, each time, ruger sent a prepaid shipping...

    GP100 5" OR 686 4" or 6"?

    well, i'm also 'one of those guys'. i can't bring myself to buy a smith with a lock. i had a 3" gp100 that was great to carry and fun at the range, even with 180gr buffalo bore hardcast loads. however, it just didn't shoot that well. i had replaced the front sight with a gemini customs...

    bisley conversion

    i recently picked up a blakchawk .45 convertible. I'm considering doing a bisley conversion on it. I currently have a lipsey's .44 mag super blackhawk bisley and love the way it handles, even with heavy loads. my main questions are how much actual fitting does the grip frame typically...

    Second guessing the AR for SD

    seems like you went from selling it, to keeping it, to selling it...all in about three hours. i'd say hang onto it until you sure of your decision.

    Second guessing the AR for SD

    sounds like your mind is made up then. sell it and move on. there's no golden rule that you must own an AR.

    Probelms w/ Federal GMM 168SMK? (308win)

    i'll echo everything swampman mentioned. also, try using good sandbags. i've done some of me best shooting from prone off a bipod with a rear wedge bag. i do my load development this way as well due to the benches at my range being at an akward height. fgmm has never let me down.
