My new grips and red dot finally got here. I'm one happy guy.

Nice. How is the .45 auto in a revolver? I've got a 686 that I usually shoot .38 through for practice, +p for things that go bump. Is the .45 somewhere in between +p and .357?

[mmcnx2]

The 45 does have a bump. Given the frame size and weight I think it is about equal to a 357, more of a push verses a snap though.

It a blast to shoot, I've always wanted one, mostly becasue with the moon clips it is unique and it rounded out my handgun collection.

I'm not entirely sure why but my keyboard is levitaing.

I'm waiting for a revolver event to show her off. Might have to find a holster for her so I can play the steel game.

BTW, you can shoot 45 Super in that thing too...

Good looking wheel gun...

Can I shoot it in my Glock 30?

[Rodentman]

I was gonna get some .45 Super brass but John was out, no surprise there. (For my 625JM not a Glock 30).

I DID manage to get a bunch of 40g Nosler for the 5.7 and 6 lbs of powder. Bullets, scarce. Primers, John said there might be one or two on the floor

Yeah the 686 is an L frame and the 625 is an N frame. There is a significant weight difference. I would compare it to shooting an all steel 1911 with 230gr FMJs. The push is the right description. It's not unpleasant like a J-frame with 38sp +P, but it's not like shooting a twin stack 9 either. I like shooting mine. The recoil doesn't bother me one bit...
