I still have a soft spot for big slugs at moderate velocity. My neighbor growing up had a large "Snake" collection and most has 2-4x leupolds on top. They're perfect for box blinds..Actually just bought a Super Redhawk in .44 Mag with the 9.5" barrel. You know it went off, but the recoil is fine for 10-20 shots. One day of effort at the bench yielded 300 grain HDY XTPs at 1300 FPS over 19 grains of Lil'Gun, and I intend to mount a Burris Fastfire 3 on top.
The older I get, the less tolerant I become of butt stocks.

Re: One for TAM and Andy C and the .45-70
They port those barrels, and the blast wave feels like a slap in the face to bystanders.
