Back in college in the 1970s a friend sold me his 1969 that he had some better sights put on and had removed the magazine safety so that the trigger pull was just excellent...he also was able to take out most of the pre-travel. Shot that gun for about two years before trading it back to him. We shot together for the next 35+ years and I don't think I ever saw him shoot that gun again... I still hut and shoot with his nephew and brother and will have to ask if they have the gun...
That HP was very accurate and 101% reliable even with JHP reloads. I think the major reason I sold it was the tang...or lack thereof... And the tiny-weeny safety.... But they are a classic and seems to fit everyones hands well.
A friend had Yost make up a HP for her...it was really slick.
