Went to the range with my Longguns 44magnum, My Ruger Super Black Hawk 10.5" and my Henry Big Boy Allweather. Winter and cold but it was a good day with a friend of mine, brought some Cookies, beef Jerky, coffee and warm choko. All shooting is made offhand at 25meter at a bullseye target.

Shot with handloads 240gr Fiocchi SJP in my Ruger SBH probably around 15-1600fps poi little low because sights are set at smaller targets but pleased with the groupingπŸ˜€. Its a 5shot group some stickers (whats its called in English?) Fell off.

Was a little cold without gloves so it wasnt so much shooting mostly talking and drinking coffee 😁

Thanks, I use Vithavouri N110. :D The 10,5" gives a pretty good boost to the speed, havent chronoed the speed with this jacketed load but with a castbullet 240gr it passed 1700fps in the Ruger with N110 however it shot very well. Really need to buy me a Chronograph I just borrowed one on occations, so I can use it whenever I want to. :) Would really want a labradar but they are so expensive.

Thanks, I really like the Ruger but I like it more with original grip, but with that square triggerguard it beats my fingers so I cant use it. It really hurts!
