My son wants to get the best revolver he can for long range shooting for under $2000
& I will join him with what I have if I can.
Not for competition , just for here on our range, which is 300+ yards & that is probably
too far for the revolvers, or is it?
I have a few T/C pistols that can do that range but I don't know how well revolvers do
at real long range.
Although I do have several magnum S&W revolvers with 8 & 3/8" barrels & shoot
them at 60 yards often including an S&W model 29 scoped which goes 100 yards easy
enough even for deer hunting.
What I have here is a model 27-2 & 25-5 & 29-2 in 8-3/8" barrels & a few of the same
in 6" barrels.
I can get any of them prepped for a scope if necessary for my own set up.
Are any of these capable of accuracy at long range? And that makes the question more
complicated is ,what is considered long range for a revolver?
Please don't tell me it takes one of those elephant gun calibers in a revolver that looks
like a cartoon prop ,I want to keep it realistic for him.
