Default Finished my 629-3 Classic Trifecta!

Picked up the 8 3/8 on Friday to complete the set. I put 100 rounds through it the next day trying to see if the scope that came with it would stop working. It actually survived.

Those are three fine 44s. It looks like you've been bit by the 629 bug. Do you have a favorite barrel length?
