Wow, just took my new Model 657 .41 Magnum to the range. All I can say is what a weapon!
Silky smooth, very suprisingly accurate considering a 2-5/8 Barrell.
S&W Has outdone themselves. Hands down this is the best weapon I have ever owned.
Only have one Smith in .41mag and love it. Mine is a 657-5 with the 8" full under lug barrel and non-fluted cylinder. Big old gun like that even with max loads is easy to shoot. I am jealous of that shootin' iron of yours.
