    Me and the M69 have clicked....

    I'm going to try your 11 grain Unique load in the future. I also want try a load I have for another 44 ... 20 grains 2400. Both under 200XTP. So far my M69 has been a wonderful shooter.

    M69 Take 2... got it to the range today!

    The 215 Bayou I shoot don't leave any leading even though they are sized to .430. They don't slip right through the throats, but I havent seen any negative results, and they are accurate. Edit: I checked again and the .430 Bayou dont slip through the throats ... neither do .429 XTP's, but they...

    M69 Take 2... got it to the range today!

    Nice to see the gun is back and performing the way you wish. What kind of velocity are you getting on that 200XTP/11.4 Unique load? I get 1107fps from 10.5 Unique under a Bayou 215 grain powder coated SWC.

    What is going on with this 69?

    I shoot Bayou Bullets sized at .430 and they are accurate and leave my bore clean. Both the 215 grain and 240 grain shoot well through my 69.

    Review of my new S&W 69 and minor custom work

    I really love my M69. 10.5 grains of Unique under a 215 grain powder coated SWC is running right at 1100fps with great accuracy. 9.0 grains of Unique under 240 grain powder coated SWC shoots well also, but I havent run these through the chrono. I bought this gun for general woods carry...

    New 69 ... Possible Issues ...

    The crown on mine looks exactly as yours did prior to your sending it back ... I might also add that the ridges are consistent on all lands. I could easily clean it off with my 45 degree crown tool. I'm going to shoot the gun and see what she'll do. Other than the 2 items noted above, the gun...

    New 69 ... Possible Issues ...

    My new Model 69 came today. I did notice 2 issues I was aware of from research. 1 - the barrel is slightly clocked to the left, however, the front blade shows no uneven gap in the rear notch. 2 - on the crown the lands do have a ridge that extends out enough to catch a fingernail. I'm...

    Pulled the trigger on a new M69....

    Anyone have an idea of velocity with 9.0 grains Unique under a 240 SWC? I shoot that load from my Super Blackhawk Hunter and it averages 1035FPS.

    Pulled the trigger on a new M69....

    My first post on this board ... I too ordered a M69 a few days ago. Looking forward to its arrival. I have some 215 grain SWC over 10.5 grains of Unique to start with.
