Yep, that should work just fine. Love the 45, never found a reason to drift too far away. Carried 9mm and 40sw along with the 45 as duty weapons, always gravitated back to the 45. Guiding in Alaska I carried a 454 most of the time. Having been with in bayonet distance of brown bears many times...

I have good luck with Varget in my 22 250. I have a jug of H380, the Varget is better in my rifle.

Great story, thanks for the follow up. After reading this I know I need to get Ruger #1 in 280 AI.

Excellent report with fine results.

A great pilgrimage, I need to do that!

Tough looking little critter!

Again, thank you all for the prayers. We will always remember your kindness.

That must have been so tough to loose your mother at 17 or there about. You have my sincere sympathy.
