March 2019 single action "old west" revolver 10 shot challenge

[Armored farmer]

Thanks for the great challenges @lionking.
It was good to pull some of my old revolvers out of the safe and rediscover why, at one time, they were my 'must-haves'
I found out I still like them all, and need to practice with them.

Congrats to @1KPerDay for winning the self-imposed sub category of cap n ball. Well done.

I'm looking forward to participating in the rimfire challenge.

I wasn't able to get to the range with finals going on but I have lived vicariously through you all.
I enjoyed the pics.

Yes, it is now May and the challenge is over.

Except I bought a new Blackhawk .357 Magnum yesterday and got to try it for the first time today. So this does not count. But I'm posting it anyway because it made me feel good!

15 yards, one-handed, 158 grain home cast RNFP lead bullets, Alox lube, 2.7 grains Bullseye in .38 Special brass.

Who knew adjustable sights could help that much??

Noice!

If the balls shot anywhere near target, I'm impressed.


I'm glad the slugs weren't terrible.

They are a bit hard. But they shoot well!
