perfect idea. the rears were a breeze to install.
the fronts were damn tight tolerances held. a lil filing here and there helped w/my jewelers file.
these are going to be at the very very max 200yd spoons. and thats pushing it due to barrel lengths.
.357/.38 for general porpoise(purpose) all around sidekick to the smith .357/.38's and just a fun camp spoon to make small kritters lives miserable. cheap shooting for wifey/kids/amigos
.44 all around camp/brush deer/anti-black bear compliment to 629's.
and the 45/70 ass whoooo-per for brush elk/uncle brownie bear/and general all around shoulder re-arranger. and the errant buffalo stampede/tera-dactyl/t-rex rampage.
just talked to my hunting peudner and wez gonna use his caldwell metal rifle sled on this and lock them down on the bench for the uberest of accuracy that any of these rounds can produce.
