Coming up in rotation is this old (1974) Blackhawk in .357. I have posted on some forums about this gun. It was a train wreck when I got it. I had to totally rebuild it but it turned out to be an awesome shooter. The Buehler mount was on the gun when I got it and made about the same time as...

I have drug one of my old rigs out of its hiding place in one of the safes and brought it back into the mix. I know some of you have seen the posts about putting the new mount on it along with a new FXII-4 Leupold. This gun killed more deer than I can remmember. When they opend 3 does a day in...

That much in it too!

240XTP over 22.0 grs H110 with a 155 primer in Starline brass

Yes they are!

Here is one of the .450 loads with the 560 grain bullets next to a 44 magnum to put it in perspective.

We are just a little crazy. I tolerate the recoil to get the performance. Some guys are addicted to it.

240XTP over 22.0 grs H110 with a 155 primer in Starline brass. This thing is so easy to shoot well I can offhand 1" 25 yard groups with that load.

Here is Randy wearing one of the chest rigs. I need to get a good pic of mine. It is slightly different from the one he is wearing.

First time in the woods for the .44 4.2 Redhawk. First off this thing shoots and is easy to shoot. Second, it packs great. I used one of Back Country Leather's (Randy Miller) chest rigs. A match made in heaven. I bought it for bear protection but it is deffinately getting some woods time...

FYI the load I am shooting right now in the .450 uses 56.5 grains of H322 with a 210M primer. It chronographs 2030 fps. No need to go the 2400 FPS on deer.

That is going to 43,000 with 1200-R powder.

So far. The glass is clear and the adjustments are prescise. I talked to them a fw days ago about the info for using the stadia. They said they are still working on it.

I tried some of the really hot loads like I used on the water buffalo in it without the brake. It was rough. With the brake it is tolerable but a lot of people probably still wouldn't like it. The top end 420 grain loads even with the brake are rather fiesty.

Anything you stick in it will do at least an inch. Some loads about .5". Its a shooter.

Thanks! Its fun that's for sure.

This one has Tony Gettels on it. Of course Jim makes some nice pieces too!

I have been looking at JRHs. The brass issue has been keeping me from doing it. Either buy it from Buffalo Bore whihc is pretty ptricey or chop off 500 S&W. Which did you do?

I shot it quite a bit while I was off for Thanksgiving. This is a fun gun. I can't wait to kill a deer with it.

I finally bloodied my .450 Encore. 160 yards. The gun is working great. I used a 300 grain Hornady loaded to 2030 fps. With the new 1200-R powder I can get them out over 2400 fps from the 15" barrel. Quite the beast. I am saving my 300 grain Partitions for Elk, moose or Africa. I would love to...
