    An old Charter Bulldog

    CA 2000 Bulldog I picked one up new on Monday and fired 20 rnds of 240g Rainier handloads through it with no problems. It seems to be a good gun. It seems to be accurate as well. The recoil was not bad. I need to use powder other than the 13.5g of IMR231, lots of unburned pwdr. I did notice...
