What group size are you getting? Maybe try .452 bullets? That is one gun on my short list. Hope it works out.

.... if only they acted like rabbits,,,,,, hahaha !! :D Shoot I only have 3 Rugers one 357/9mm one 44 sbh and one new model Vaquero 45. All in the 4 and 5/8" I have a lot of catching up to do! ;)

Y'all, thanks for the answers and opinions. It was what I was looking for. I have decided (unless a nice Blackhawk pops up) that I'm just going to stick with my new model Vaqureo for 45. That way I don't get loads mixed up for it. I can load it to 850 or my standard load at 750 fps and just...

I know I want one or the other in 45 with the 4" or 4 5/8" barrel. I'm looking for one to shoot warmer than standard Colt loads in. I like them both but will only get one. I have holsters for the Blackhawk so I'm a bit more in favor of that but the swing out cylinder of the Redhawk is going...

Yup thats it, Thanks! :)

Thanks! Its a C O W S I'll have to look up the full name but thats the acronym. background is cypress mulch. :P

I know how that goes! My vaquero has become my favorite! that is a cool bullet holder!

Its a nice cowboy set-up. I've been totin' for a few hours yesterday and today. With 250 or 255 gr bullets and 6 gr of Titegroup it shoots very well with easy recoil. 8)

Actually I appericiate the question. I'm running my reloads in this one and I "think" they are running around 900 fps. So far its a very fun gun to shoot. I even got a holster with it a COWS next I need a horse and I'm ready to move back west. :lol:

Sounds like some good advice thanks! I haven't done the casting bit yet. Where ya from in Wa. ? I grew up in the Vancouver/ Hazel Dell area.

Fun one to shoot. The lighter frame is easier to handle. Really no recoil to speak of either. I just need to load more 45 !

Good deal. That is a proper looking work gun!

Ha! I got this one because I knew it was exactly what I wanted. 'Course if a 5.5" had showed up first..... :lol: I now have my sights on a 4 5/8" Vaquero 45 Colt!!! 8)

Wheelgunner, That is a sharp looking sixshooter! :) I've asked member 41 mag to set me up with some longer stocks for my 4 5/8" sbh. It, like yours came to me possibly never shot and will be a favorite for packing in the woods. :wink:

I've found that 8 gr of titegroup under a 240 gr swc I'm getting 1033 fps. Its good for me for most of my walking around. The hotter loads are fun! :)
