Well, I didn't find the Redhawk, but I did bring home...
an early production S&W Mountain Gun in 44 mag. I knew a guy wanting to buy a big gas generator, and I had an 8000 watt Coleman in the garage that I had bought 8 years ago and never had to use. The guy had the Mountain Gun since it was new but he rarely shot it because he didn't like the recoil. He even had it Mag-na-ported to try to make it work for him. Finally he stuck it in the safe and moved on. I'll have to be nice to it because it was built prior to S&Ws "magnum improvement" program. I'm thinking Lyman 429244 loaded to about 1000 fps ought to be about right.

- Sounds like a good deal to me, and 429421 @ 1000 is good.. - Cherokee, 2011-12-17, 21:28
- How early? Is it the dull finish or bright stainless? -
