I'm a piker, guys.

My T/C is in .357Maximum.  10" barrel, original sights.   Used for production and standing big bore IHMSA.  If the opportunity presents itself, I get some other barrels for it.   Just haven't shot IHMSA in a long while.

I did fire my BIL's 45/70 years ago.  5 shots were enough, but I did handle it okay.

I know you can still get the brass.   Just bought 500 this year.   I reload, so that's all I need.

I just picked up this puppy for my "two guns, one ammo' loadout.


I think it qualifies as a hand cannon.

You can get 11 different loads here. http://shop.reedsammo.com/searchquick-submit.sc?keywords=.357 and the T/C custom shop still makes .357 Max barrels.

I thought it said III and was a .30 carbine. Nice to know I get things right sometimes.

Awesome pistol Overload. Is it hard to handle on recoil?

I will stick to my .45 ACP as my hand cannon. Unfortunately I cannot hunt with it in Indiana. Unless I can collect some funds to buy a .44 magnum or .357 magnum then I would be set.
