received my Master card. I still shoot just about every week in
the Gun club shoots. I use the Model 41, Model 52-1 and the
Smith 45 cal revolver. I have other guns but when I want to
win I use the best. I can still split a card at 35 feet with
the Model 52. I cast my own bullets and make my own lube.
I have not shot a store bought in 42 years. I am still the best shot in this area. The 52-1 is the best gun smith & Wesson
every built.

Sarge. what bullets and powder do you shoot in your 52. I have been using HBWC (my own casting) and bullseye 2.6. Am changing to Clays 2.6, it seems to be cleaner when using in my 1911. George
