Default Redhawk 45 duo

A tardy range report on the new 45. Ammo was 230gr Berry plated HP over 9gr Alliant Unique using a CCI large pistol primer. I' sure there will be some powder recommendations, but its like this..I've been loading Unique since I was 16 and am comfortable with it, besides, i have 8 pounds of it to use.

First group..ok but off center



After adjusting thesights, i moved the group over. This pic has several adjustmenys in the pic.



Final product. Its a 4" orange circle.



I really like this weapon and plan for it to be my backup woods gun this year.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
