We have a small group of people here who get together on a semi-regular basis and clean up public ranges so that we can keep them open. After the clean up we usually have a BBQ and a lot of shooting. It is amazing the different guns you can see and use when there are 20-30 people bringing out their toys.
Well, we are planning a pin shoot at our next outing. We have been collecting pins and trying to figure out what we need and I think we are good to go.
Now all I need is the voice of experience to let me in on a good load or two to try. I have a Austin Behlert Model 25-5 that is just begging to go to the pin shoot. I figure it will be the nearly perfect gun for this. Plus, everyone else will have their wunderGlocks and other semi's to shoot with. I may as well act my age and show up with a wheelgun.
So, who has a 45 Colt load that will hit with authority yet still give lowered recoil? If it helps, the gun is magna-ported so that will help tame the recoil a little bit.
I figure a decent load and a few speed loaders and I should be good to go. Hopefully I can school a few of the young whippersnappers who think wheelguns belong in museums.
The gun I plan on using:
TIA
