How far off can I kill somethin' with that thing....? My longest shot on game was 135yds..... I was shooting at a turtle on the opposite bank of a large pond in Texas and I asked my friend to range it and he replied 165yds. I held about 6" over turtle and fired kicking dust. I asked how much I missed by and he said "six inches high"....

I'm not telling anyone here how to live their lives, but the FA 97 comes in 41 magnum and the long octagon barrels feel really nimble on them. $150 gets you a titanium scope mount off eBay, and you're off to the races for irons or a scope.

I like the idea of the 97 but the 83 gives you some more cylinder length or you can shallow seat the bullets.... I know this has been answered somewhere before but how much longer are the 83 cylinders?

I have a short barreled FA 97 in 41 Mag. I’m in it cheap and have pondered the long barrel.
