Well, snowing again so we went to the indoor range today.
These were the cartridges of choice. 45 ACP, 45 AR, 455 Colt/Eley/Wesley, 45 Colt, and 45 Win Mag. (Bottom pic)
Top Pic is left to right, S&W N frame, in 455, dated 1915. To it's right is ruger Blackhawk convertible in 45 Colt/ACP and 45 Win Mag. Next to that is a S&W 1917 in 45 ACP/AR. Next to that is a Colt New Service in 455 Eley, also from 1915. Next row down starts with a S&W 4 inch Model 25 in 45 Colt. Beside that is a S&W 1955 in 45ACP/AR. Beside that is a little 22 therapy to fix any flinches, a Dan Wesson 22 VH6. Middle Pic has two more 22's at the top, a Colt Officers Match Target and a S&W Model 17. Under that, back to 45's. An antique Belgian Bulldog (still figuring out loads for that one), then a Cimarron Schofield Wells Fargo in 45 Schofield/Colt, and a Wbley Mk VI in 455, from 1915. Had a great time, sorted out some loads, burned some powder and slew the vicious paper targets. - dan
