Great shooting! A 5 shot 45 was one of my original "must haves".
I wish I had got the GC version of that mold rather than the plain base. I know everyone likes to say that they can push plain base boolits fast without leading as sort of a badge of honor, but the simple fact is the gas check is better for top end loads. Especially so in 5 shot level loads.

The Ultimate Bisley was always my favorite Reeder gun and that one is a good example of why.
But that pair of Clements guns, those are mouth-watering! I could look at them all day long.

Nothing against a good GC but I generally think that if I need a GC because of velocity, velocity is the problem. I simply don't have enough bullet weight. Our buddy Doug gave me a 475L Ultimate Bisley. I've got a Bowen rear and a selection of Ken O'Neill blades for it.. I like Reeder's gunfighter grip contour. Thinking I may ask Gary to take my Reeder 5 shot 45 Colt and cut the barrel and round the grip frame.

It would look good roundbutted and cut back to four inches or so.

I'm thinking the same... End up with something like my Reeder 500L Ultimate Backup with a gloss finish and the gunfighter grip.

I can dig it but I might be tempted to go with virgin unicorn horn for the grips.

The UB now wears a Ken O'Neill front blade and a Bowen rear now so I doubt the Dawgs would like it anymore.. On the 45 I'd hate to ship it all the way to AZ and not have it come home with at least one new set of grips..

Yo Hammerdown77... I have some full cases of H110 over a 440 GC that you need to shoot in that one.. Shoot it along side my 4 inch 500WE and see if you can tell any difference!

Gorgeous is as gorgeous does. Here is my 410 GNR by Reeder along with some work at 25 yards.
