I had about 300 of these left the other day trying to decide what to do with them. The front driving band is so wide they will not chamber in my Freedom Arms 83 or any of my Ruger single actions. And they are too long for the Taurus Tracker and Freedom Arms 97... So I loaded them all up with 8.0 grains of Unique (target says 9 and has been corrected) which is my standard all around load...975 from a 4"...and will use them in the Smiths which fit them just fine...

This was 20 yards double action with a 6" 657....











I am starting to tired of heavy recoil and except in the Freedom Arms 84 and maybe the 8 3/8" S&Ws I plan on keeping velocities in the 950-1200 fps range... I've got 41 years of shooting on the right hand and wrist and would like to get another 20 out of them...
