Default A .44 KINDA DAY

On my second outing since my six week medical battles, I decided to dig out some .44's that I hadn't shot in a while. I took a S&W 629-6, a S&W 624 and a Ruger Super Redhawk. Shot each at ten yards, dbl action, 24 shots. All ammo was .44 Spl homebrewed. I lost a lot of weight and muscle tone with my medical issues and hospital stay but I'm on the mend now. It is so good to be able to get out and about again.

I want to thank all the forum members that wished me well and prayed for my recovery. I sincerely thank you.
