nice shooting!

have you tried it at 50 yards or further?

would be curious to know how it does at long range.

While the Python ticks *ALL* the nostalgia boxes, and was at the top of the bucket list at one time many years ago, I think I would actually buy that other classic that was recently brought out of mothballs - a Dan Wesson revolver. From everything I read it is a stronger and more durable gun.
