Default 45 acp revolvers targets/guns/pics

Not wanting to steal another thread, here's a few targets from a recent range trip.

Someone asked in another thread; Why the 45acp in a revolver? I think I know the answer to the question.

Well, here are my two with a few targets. both were shot from a standing position at 10 yards. I was shooting a wonderful load;PMC 200 grain SWC that I have a stash of.

The 625 target is 20 rounds, the 325 is 15 rounds. Every range session I have starts with a flyer or two, the rest fine. The 625 has one, the 325 has two.

Also pictured are my two guns, in a fuzzy scanned pic. I don't have a camera.

The credit goes to these guns as I am usually just a average shot. The two guns are great. I actually prefer the 625-10 2". The other is a 325sc 2 3/4".

As a side note I handed the guns to my friend who was there and he fired both with 230 round ball ammo, no moon clips. He had to pick them out one by one, but no FTFs.

These guns have both always shot like this at each range session. A credit to some nicely made guns.

Hopefully pictures came out okay.

Dave

My 325sc is not ported. With 200swc PMC or a 200 swc load with w231 it's a joy to shoot at 22oz.

Recoil is very manageable.I would equate it to +p in an alloy j frame 38. Maybe even a lilltel less. More like +p in a steel j frame 38.

I hope yoy enjoy your 325pd. Hard to tell from my fuzzy pic but my 325sc has a red ramp front sight, not the hi-viz orange site of the 325pd. I like the red ramp a lot.

All the best.

Dave
