First trip to the range yesterday for a short session. Shot this five-shot group at 50 yards with Garrett 365 grain loads. Can't wait to do some serious load development.

Jack Huntington performed all of the work. And he did a fine job by the looks of it.
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

Very nice shoot'n! Nothing like a purdy gun that shoots gud!
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

I posted a couple of pictures of a stock .45 Colt six-shot cylinder next to the oversized unit. I can assure you that I saved no money -- LOL!
