The Judge as hunting back up?

Gaming the Judge

I could've said "pimping" but it's not a whore, although I have had intentions of treating it as one. First I wanted to use steel hulls for my reloads, and that is still possible. I thought about the "disk-n-buck loads", the All ØØØØ loads, 300gr bullet in .45C, and many lighter loadings, checking for precision and patterning. And then I found this company: Paraklese Technologies. Whooo-Hooo! Any sort of load one could want or dream of, and they're still testing for more. I'll buy their technology and use and enjoy it, but I'm still partial to the steel hulls. I'll get back to ya' on that. DAO

You might want to get some and test it before buying a lot their stuff. I have not bought anything from them because of a reputation for poor quality control. Maybe they have fixed the problems, let us know how it goes.

The Judge is the only revolver that lets you mix up so many differant rounds in one hand gun. I like that.

The S&W Governor is more versatile than the Judge and has an extra shot.

But more importantly, it's better to use a .45 Colt load with a 250 grain bullet instead of the .410 slug that only weighs 96 grains.

"better to use a .45 Colt load with a 250 grain bullet instead of the .410 slug that only weighs 96 grains."

indeed, good advice, always match your load to intended purpose

versatile gun, though, da Judge
good for whatever ails you, I reckon
