Looks very tidy Don. No..or very little drag marks ..so its either near new... has perfect timing...or a bit of both. Still one of the most impressive model revolvers ever made I feel. Cant look at one without feeling nostalgic or getting caught up in history and folklore. Well done... we'll wait for the shoot impression.

Hopefully the weather cooperates next week. Not exactly been shooting weather since Thanksgiving.

I think you'll find a way to.
These loads you have, are they BP or smokeless?

They're talking snow and cold again the end of the week... We'll see.
Both powders.

Will you have to go to town to pick it up from a FFL?
