Mine is a S&W 686, .357 mag, 6" barrel. No pics, its my neighbors. Fun to shoot though. People around you wonder what your shooting when they hear the KABOOOM of the .357 round.
 
I call it Franky, it started life as a 28-2 six inch. Wasn't in terrible condition but I picked up a brand new 4 inch barrel and wanted to give it a try just once. Turned out to be pretty easy to change and the gun is a tack driver. Of course I just prefer shooting with the presentation grips, not as rough on the hands. It's always in the range bag.

I've shot some pretty good groups ( for me ) with this 6 inch 586...

... it's sportin' combat grips in this pic but a set of targets are the stocks I keep on it now.

Little question in my mind at this time, this one.

PB180001.jpg


4" 624 ND

Absolute laser!

I'll admit, there's one or two others that are capable of similar accuracy and let's face it, all the revolvers are fun for the range bag.

Here's one that is known for making that single large hole in the target.

25-7

This one makes 170g cast rounds at maximum velocity feel like target wadcutters. Accuate too. It shot the target below with such rounds at 15 yards.

My two favorites, start at the range with my Pre 27
P1010700.jpg

End with my 17-2
P1010484.jpg
 
Pre 14's have got to be my favorite range guns. They are just incredibly accurate and just a pleasure to heft, point, and squeeze. The 14's are the best for killin paper. Including the 14-3.

Had to take a second look at that until I noticed the front sights. Nice twist for a 6" 586 with those grips.
 
These are my bullseye revolvers: from the top a Model 17, 14, a JM 45ACP and a 1989 45ACP
