And that is why folks in my S&W 629-1 I handload 240 gr LSWC at 900 or so fps for most of my shooting.
If I go deer hunt I have DPX 225 gr .44 magnums and the gun is sighted dead on at 25 yards with this load.
But like I said, load the big .44s down for most of your needs and if need be, you can load it up!
Oh, and my 625-1 eats .45 Supers all day (but DON'T EVER USE THEM IN A 1917!))
Well dickydalton,
I have TWO of them! Or actually I have four 629s.
Two are regular 629-1s, 4 inchers, one a fancy 'presentation' model, and the other my working gun below.
And two of them are mountian guns. One a 629-1, as shown well above, and another is a 629-4 I think. Has the 'enhancements' and still flash chromed hammer and trigger.
