    Jack Link's Beef Jerkey presents BBI messing with Sasquatch.
    Seriously nice shooting, and that's one handsome shooting iron.
    Especially like those nice big target stocks.

    Nice gun! Nice shootin'! The other target I really like I call "mulletpalooza", guy in a wife beater t-shirt and weightlifter pants wearing a prodigious mullet and pointing a 38 snubbie at you from the hip.

    Nice pics. They don't make 'em like that anymore. I have a blued version and a couple of 66's.

    I had a blued version, which I also obtained on INGO. It was the target hammer/target trigger/target sights. I couldn't get used to the sights. If the target was dark or black, I could *not* see the front sight. I could only focus on the rear sight or on the target and the front sight just remained invisible. I loved the way the gun looked, but I couldn't use it. I ended up trading it to Indiucky, which is how I obtained my Model 29. I'd like to get a 25-5 and a 3" 624 at some point, but am in no rush.

    As a resident of prime Bigfoot country I approve.

    And damn I forgot about that target! Post that image so I can grab it. I may put one or two up here for the tourists!

    I recently picked up a 19-3 Nickel from the INGO classifieds. I treated it to a little Mother's detail wax and spoke lovingly to it until we could go to the range today.

    Yours is in much better shape than a friend of mines

    It only takes one mistake when reloading to get this result. Hope nobody was seriously injured.

    No injuries except possibly some soiled Fruit of the looms. The scale was set on Carots instead of grains.

    He said he was going to load up some rounds for his mother in law but needed a gun to test them in. Not getting mine so he better keep looking.

    No worries, that'll buff right out! :laugh:

    Now that's funny

    No Bigfoots today, but 48/48 at 5 yards working "around the clock" on the dots as fast as I could find the front sight. That's on an indoor range, too, where I often start to suffer from flinch due to the concussion.

    This may be my most intuitive revolver to shoot. Hush, Rick.

    Nice groups. Always recommended that people make a trip to an indoor range back when I was in the business, knowing that in a dark house touching off a .357 is going to stop everybody close from seeing or hearing for a short while. Make the first one count.

    First shot nailed it, I almost reeled the target in for a picture then but finished the cylinder.
