Joined the .357 rifle club today!

[fortyshooter]

Pulled the trigger on the .357 CCH 20 inch BB.
Wanted it to be different than my .44 Carbine. Now to start cleaning my pile of 38/357 brass!

Seems like a pretty good price for that gun. I am still holding my breath for a side loader in 357. Good shooting!!

[markiver54]

Good look'n gun forty...congrats!!

[Rifletom]

Yep, that's a beauty. You are gonna to love shooting that! Glad you got it.

[fortyshooter]

Yep that thing kept talkin to me and while I was starting to decap some .45 Colt brass I said what the heck and clicked the " add to cart" button which always gets me in trouble!

Now what bullets do these rifle s like? I shoot a mix of lead and plated with my two .357 revolvers.
Do you guys stick with plated/ FMJ with the Mag loads? Or the coated Missouri Bullets at 158 gr.?

[BigAl52]

Those 180's at MC are hard to beat just ask Tom. I tried the pugnose and liked them alot. We should of seen a report from Randy who just got some but hes probably into the BT whiskey by now.

[BigAl52]

Oh by the way congrats on the new Henry glad you got it. I love mine I know you will like that one.

[MarkB]

Post a pic when you get it. All the CC receivers are one of a kind so it will be good to see hat yours looks like. I'll get my carbine on Thursday when it gets to my FFL. Oh, $765.21 (free ship) TSS Warehouse(6 in stock).

Congrats Forty, that's a good looking model, now why can't they make a 38-55 like that.

Over the past few years about all I've shot are some 180 cast out of my Rossi.
Like Al said I just received some of those Pugnose 180's from MBC, got a few loaded this morn, but didn't make it out to the barn today.
Probably tomorrow, I'm expecting good things with these.
These will be the third profile of 180's that I've used.

congrats indeed .... I can only wish CCH rifles had of been available when we purchased our BBS 357 & 44 .... Rose Distribution 158 gr Zero bullets are reasonably priced and our Henry likes them ===> http://www.rozedist.com/mm5/merchant.mv ... de=ZBJ-38S .... be sure to add your new Henry to our community's total

Wow...Bud's bumped the price up 50 bucks several hours after I purchased it! Still got it for 744.00.

Yeah, Bud's will do that often enough. When I bought my semi auto 12ga[Moss. 930] I got it for $489.00. An hour later, it was back to $638.00! Gotta play their game and keep an eye on prices. BTW, give those MB 180's a try; think you'll like 'em.

They say they base their prices on suppliers inventory and it can change within hours.
I'm getting ready to place a order with MB for those 180's and some 158's. Did you shoot the coated 180's?

Yes. They are very accurate with 11.5gr 2400 from my Henry. Those will be my standard bullet for the .357. And I still have lots of 158's to shoot up also.

[fortyshooter]

Thanks! Hopefully by end of next week I may be taking some shots with the new Henry.

[BigAl52]

Might take note Forty. Randy and I ordered the Pugnose 180 coated. But Tom is using the other 180gr. Im not sure there is much difference in how they shoot as I had great luck with the Pugnose with that same 2400 load.

[Rifletom]

Correct. The one's I ordered are : .357 Striker-Hi-Tek[#HT-358180M]. Thinking they shoot the same.

[If1Hitu]

Congrats!

Should be no problem,
as I have used that load with 3 different 180 gr boolits, and had near the same results with all 3.
Two were PC"d and one was a lubed bullet. It's a good load.
Three different Henry rifles and my long barrel Rossi.
