    Early Model 57 with rare Vinyl Covered Presentation Case

    My 1964 M57 has the same presentation case. It is a terrific shooter. Dan

    DO NOT ASK sign

    We have “Caution: Firearms in Use” signs posted on our property. They have been pretty effective in keeping trespassers out. I am known as the guy who “shoots guns all the time”.

    To answer the original question “is there a practical reason to transition from .38 to .357 in the context of EDC in suburban America” NO

    Ruger Redhawk replacing S&W 25-5 (.45s and family)

    “ My target goal for wilderness carry is 300 grains at 1K FPS from a 4". bbl.” This can be accomplished with “tier 2” loads (23k psi) which the M-25 can handle. In Brian Pearce’s Handloader article he had loads slightly higher in velocity using Longshot, Power Pistol, and TCM powder. My only...

    Model 645 confusion

    That’s the best looking 645 I have ever seen. Amazing how much better it looks without the squared trigger guard. I may have to get up my nerve and get out the files. Dan

    .41 Magnum with Accurate #9, H110

    I have loaded a lot of H110/WW296, 2400, and AA#9 in my 41’s. While all 3 work very well, I have settled on #9 as my “go to”. I think you will like it. Dan

    Woods Carry 357 Search

    I didn’t think so Mike. My Son had one and I was surprised at how controllable it was. He carried it for his BUG when he was a police officer. For me personally this question is answered with a 4” Security Six. 😉 Dan

    Will Pete Rose be voted into the Baseball HOF anytime soon now..... ?

    +1 on Roger Maris. The only thing he did wrong was hit more HR’s in a season than Mantle did, and pissed off the New York media.
