RE: Delaware Hand Gun ???
OLDSNOW,
I'll be out with a 44 Ruger Super Blackhawk "Hunter" S/A. SS with Millett Red Dot.Using Winchester 240gr JSP.
That T/C should be a nice weapon on deer! My buddy borrowed a S&W .357(open sights). We ended up with consistant 3" groups at 20' and about 4" at 30yrds.That should be good for clean kill.
BTW - What kind of round are you using in your T/C??

OLDSNOW - Sounds like your contender is a real shooter !
Maybe we'll both get lucky this week and take our 1st deer with handgun.
BTW - What kind of round/bullet are you using in that 357 ??
As I mentioned in previous post my buddy borrowed a 357.He got some shells with gun,in unmarked box??He ended up buying box of 125gr HP's(??? brand).
Anyway -- I just bought my 44 last year. I'm still playing with bullets and trying to become more proficient with the "Red Dot" scope.Much differant than holding a long gun "dead on target".

AJ This is a 357maximum not a 357magnum, you can not buy ammo for the maximum it must be reloaded.[/align]ThebulletI use is a180 gr. Hornady single shot pistol bullet and a max load of Accurate Arms 1680 powder.[/align]Good luck on that first hand gun deer.[/align]
