INTERNET SNUBBY MATCH

Nice group! :)

Thanks! I should also add that I was standing on my hind legs like the rules state. I also ran 5 rounds (separately) over a chronograph at a target at 20 yards, and found they hit to POA at that distance, and averaged 872fps--it's a nice load.
 
Nice gun, nice target. Double action.

Extra points for +P.

May I have an exact Center to center measurement?

I will shoot my target double action.

Thanks! I measured outside-to-outside with my calipers and got 1.675 inches. Drop one caliber size (.357") for a center-to-center measurement, and I'm left with:

1.32"
 
Smith and Wesson model 649-5 with rosewood boot style combats. .357 Magnum Winchester white box 110gr jacketed hollow point. 4" group.

My contribution. I normally do a little better, but an okay result. The LaserGrip target has two shots on the upper left hole.

I usually shoot the same with either.

I'll step it up a bit with some 20yd rapid fire action. Only five shots.

With preferred ammo I could've done a little better.

What powder are you using, David R?

I typically load up my practice DEWCs at 725fps using Win 231 (3.5 grains), but that is still a far cry from 909fps!

725fps hits to POA in my 442, but I'd love to try some at around 850fps.
 
4.9 231. Max load in Lyman 47

909 fps = 274 FPE.

Next up I have 1,000 Powder coated button nose wadcutters. Wondering how more velocity I will get over traditional lubed. I will report in the reloading section.
