ALL of mine waaay outshoot me

[seancass]

But which one can out shoot you the Most?

I swear, with the two guns i mentioned, I know where the round is headed, even when i miss. I don't hide the fact that I'm not a great shot, but accurate guns are still fun!

Consistent 1.5" at 100 yards. .45 Colt with 300gr XTP mag 1296fps.

What is your most accurate revolver(s)? We talk a lot about acceptable accuracy, but we have all had a few standout examples. Please post up photos of the revolver as well!

Hard to say I have quite a few that are very accurate some are customs and some are simple factory mass produced revolvers that shoot extremely well and compare in accuracy to the best made. If they don't shoot well I usually send them down the road

This former 8 3/8 M29-2. Three inches at a hundred when I was up to it and when scoped with the old Speer 240 gr JSWC over 22.5 grs of 2400 (yeah I know...). My first handgun bought new for $360 when I was 16 in 1978.

If you are talking itty bitty groups it is one of my MK II Rugers. I'd venture one 5.5" slabside can even out shoot my 6.8" Government Competition model. I can routinely hit the nail heads holding the backer boards on the 25 yard targets. If you mean hitting what I aim at in the field consistently I can't pin ONE down. My original Redhawk in .44 or one of my A Bisley Hunters. The .45 I think is more accurate. Or my favorite carry piece a little Single Six .32 that Alan Harton built for me. 95gr bullet over 10gr Lil Gun. If I can see well enough to aim at it I can usually hit it. Those days are getting further apart all the time though.

No picture of the revolver becasue I'm at work. But a FA83, .454, 1.5x-4.0x Burris, 300gr. XTP, 30 or so gr. of H110, 25yrds from a bench. The flyer is the first shot, the next four through the same hole.

I'm betting my new Gallagher 44 mag is my most accurate, since it's had the most work done to it. But from a confidence perspective, my 7.5" Original Vaquero in 45 colt is my "go to" gun...it's *always* in the range bag and has had about 50 rds/week run through it every week for the last 2-3 years.

I have had a couple revolvers that were very accurate, a 454 casual from Freedom arms and a Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter in 45 Colt. The Ruger shot my 250grn, and my 340grn. loads almost identical POI. and would group under 1 1/2" at 50 yards when I did my job.

Both guns shot great at 50 yards, I can't find the 100 yard groups but the FA would do 1 3/8 to 1 5/8 most times if I did my job. the Freedom Arms shot the jacketed 200grn. FTX bullets for the 460 S&W with 38.0 grains of H-110 @ almost 2096fps average. I had to pull the polymer tips out to get them short enough when crimped heavily in the crimp groove they would not stick out of the cylender, they were my Varmint load, it looked like a stick of dynomite went off inside a ground hog when you hit them out to about 150 yards, and red jimmy's would just evaporate inside 50 yards! The 50 yard group was typical.

My best with no glass on them, This is only a 25 yard group, but there are twelve shots w/11 in one ragged whole, other than sights (Bowen rear, Clements #5 front) trigger job, oversize base pin, free spin pawl all that I did, and had Dave Clements cut the throats to .2525",so it is a little jerked over.

This is a 6" Premier w/Colt and 454 Cylinders and rosewood and Black Micarta grips, Both Cylinders run pretty good.


and the 454 both use my 340 cast WFN my design from Mountain Molds.

My most accurate is this Pre-Production FA 252 I bought new in 1991.
