    Excellent pieces Walter. The blended powder coating is fantastic. Looks like copper coated. Take care

    Thank you for sharing. I use the same cast bullet in my Ruger super Blackhawk 44 mag that I bought over 40 years ago. I have put well over 20,000 rounds through it. I also have a Ruger 77/44 and a Winchester 94, with a 16" barrel and a Marlin 1894 carbine with a 20 inch barrel. They are all great fun to shoot. The Marlin has put enough venison on the table to pay for all of them.

    Big thumbs up 👍 for Henry. I have two...357 Silver (discontinued) and 45 Colt side load. Both paired with S&W 357 and Ruger 45 Colt Vaquero. None have ever seen factory ammo! 👊😎

      @viejo2a Yes, if I hadn't spent so much on the bolt action I was really looking at one them. Ran out of funds finishing my build tho 🤣 Someday I will be adding one to the collection. Heading down to check chrono speeds and groups on the Berger and Hornady ammo I have to decide which I'll try the match with. After I get thru this match, I'll be ready to start working my own loads up finally. I have too many projects and not nearly enough time!! Have a great week, Walter!

      @@ChadKelly7 boy howdy! I fully understand the concept of having so many projects in the pipe. And I’m RETIRED! I don’t know how you get as much done as you do. Trust me though.. don’t try to spend time and/or money NOW as though you were retired. Hard work on the job now will reap many more benefits later than playing hard now ever will. Keep after it, Amigo. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸

      @viejo2a Good advice. I have a few goals I want to hit by certain times. I like putting more on my shoulders than I can carry. If I have 1 or 2 thing to do in a day, I'll slack and take all day on them. I give myself more to do than I can possibly physically actually do, I get so much more done. Rather do a lot every day than just a few things. I'm weird, I like working hard 🤣

    • @viejo2a
      @viejo2a  Рік тому

      Thanks Duffer. Agreed. The trigger guard grabs me too. If I’m going to shoot very many, I have to glove-up. Same with some of my Glocks.

    SST is right that block was shaky.
    Love the SBH, got My first in 1976. Got another a 10 1/2" heavy bbl for Silhouette. Later cut down to 5 1/2" for holster carry.
    Great SA's.
