Well my check finally got to the seller like a snail in a hurricane. Bad timing with the mail headed that way and right when remains of the hurricane were coming thru that region. Anyway another wait for money to clear and shipping it here.

Very nice and thanks for posting yours! Can't wait for mine to arrive! I have read that the front sight might not be tall enough causing the revolver to shoot high. How does yours shoot and what loads does it like? I have a variety of my loads to try one which is 250 gr RNFP with 6 gr. of Red Dot.

Been a while since I shot it but I don't remember a front sight issue. Some guys do run into that trying to make 300gr. bear loads and heavy bullets shoot high.
Never tried to magnumize this one , I've got single actions for that.
Mine liked cast with average pistol powders . Used a lot of Herco ,Unique and it even liked CFE pistol.
