With the Elmer Keith loading, you'll find it's actually got more power than most factory .357 loadings available today -- which would get you jail-time here.

I know you aren't reloading yet, but you should get right on that. You're not getting any younger. You'll find in the meantime that the Aguila factory 158 grain Lead bullet will shoot pretty much where your Heavy Duty points. The 130 grain Aguila will shoot low and I do not recommend it. There is a factory Aguila 158 grain jacketed soft point bullet for sale occasionally down here, and it will hit left or right but about at point of aim.

Remember that there will be a N.R.A. Action Pistol P.P.C. competition in Queretaro on the last Sunday in April so you should come on down if you can get your transportation permit in time and shoot that H.D. in our "Service Class".

You did yourself a BIG favor by getting yourself that revolver. Here's a photo of my own H.D.:
