Attn OkieCruffler / Show your necked-cartridge handguns

[Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow]

There was a thread awhile back where Mr. Okiecruffler posted a pic of three or 4 T/Cs. Can't find the thread now, but was wondering if you could tell us what they all are - caliber and bbl length.

Also, everyone, show us yout T/Cs, Strikers, XPs, etc. - your single shot, bottlenecked-round hunting handguns.

I think this is the photo you're referring to.


Let's see, Contender at the top is a 16.5" super bull barrel made by OTT in 6tcu topped with a Tasco 6-24X scope with a Georgia Jim Amby grip and a foreend from Gunstocks Inc.

Next one is a Savage Striker 510 in .308 with a Bushy 2-6X scope and custom paint by OkieBallistics.

Directly under that is My Dan Wesson 722 with cheapo red dot, not a bottle neck, but I still like it.

Under that is a 14" factory 218 bee barrel with a Bushy 6-24X scope and a forend from http://www.shotsgunsmithing.com/

On the right side is a 10" factory 32-20 with Williams F-P sight. Just traded that one for a 14" factory 30 Herrett.

Below that is my 10" 357 max, again by OTT. That now looks like this....

That's it; thanks! Man I love those. Which is your fav. after 6tcu?

 

[Okiecruffler]

Kinda like asking which is my favorite kid. the 3 I'll never part with are the 6 tcu, the 308 striker and the 357 max. The 218 will be replaced next with a custom 218. The Striker is probably my second favorite. I've never had a bad day with it and it always makes me look better than I am. And it has just the right amount of recoil, enough to make you feel manly, but not so much to mess up my hands. I had a 444 Marlin barrel that I loved, but it refractured my boxer's fractures twice.

 

[Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow]

I'd like to have one about the size of your .32-20 or .357 max, but chambered in 6mm PPC.

So you got a pic of your .30 Herrett?

 

[Okiecruffler]

Nothing special on it yet. All stock with a cheapo NcStar scope that I use until I decide if it's a keeper or not. Had it out for the first time to fireform some brass yesterday. Even with no load devolopement and cast bullets I was smacking clays at 100yrds. Very promising. I'm thinking I may turn this into my goto hunting rig, but I may have it rechambered to 30-30 AI first.
