picked this one up for 325$, looks like new [except for the grips], and tried it out last evening. really accurate with 240s and with 300 gr fairly hot loads. shot both loads into 2" groups at 20 yds , which is probably as good as my eyes can do anymore! i think this may become my favorite 44 woods companion!   |

Nice Abilene. The shorter barrels are less common on that model. If you're looking for custom grips, drop me a line at lee@singleactions.com. I know a gripmaker that just did an El Dorado set for me. Not sure if he'll cut them going forward, but his work is first rate. -Lee www.singleactions.com |

 My 4 5/8 magoloy Abilene with my herters 44 I made new grips for. Looks like yours has the heavy profile barrel too |

 I'm rather partial to the Abilenes myself. Good find. Bill |

nice abilenes here! i only have the one other US Arms, a riverhead gun, with aftermarket engraving.   it is also a 44 magnum, and like the short one, shoots amazingly well. these i am hanging on to. |
