I shot one of those quite a bit a couple of years ago. Liked a great deal! The 357 mag loads were picking up about 400 fps over what a 6" 586 S&W revolver would produce. Accuracy was decent, though I didn't do any serious tests, just plinked steel with it for the most part. Easy to carry, easy to shoot. Good looking little rascal.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

Congrats Fotis. Looks like a fun gun to shoot. I imagine it would make a fine little hog rifle.

I have some Matt's bullets 165 grain hard cast with gas check. I got up to 1400 fps in my TRR8 S&W 8 shot 5" barrel. I then lowered it to a more sedate 1250 fps. Those ought to work nicely.

Well I took her out on father's day. What a fun gun! Shot 125 XTP's well under an inch at 50 yards at over 2000 fps with 17.5 gr of LILGUN. But the star of the show was this load.
