I've been on the hunt for a fun lightweight plinker load or my Vaquero.
The gun sees loads that run from light to WHAT-WERE-YOU-THINKING. Since I've graduated to a 460 S&W, I can back the sixgun down and do more piddly-bang-pop stuff with it. I also use it to "break in" new shooters. The shiny finish and cowboy look are FAR less intimidating to newbies than the evil black guns with all the moving parts.
The biggest problem I've run into is the case capacity. Trying to light a minimum of powder in that high volume case is just plain messy.
Do any of you have reliable light loads that are guaranteed to strike fear in the hearts of soda cans everywhere?
Sorry, I'm just not into 22s and have no interest in picking one up. As new shooters progress, you can simply load 'em up with rounds packing progressively more bite without changing the gun.
