Awesome Skeen.
How big, grain weight wise, or overall length will it handle?

First on the list is American Eagle 240 grain JHP. So, that's all I've ran through it. No hiccups. It's just a fun gun, a range toy, no attempts to wring minute of anything accuracy out of 'er.

Some of the most fun I ever had with my britches on was a couple of mags of 50DE at an 8" plate from 25 yards.

They certainly are fun at the range. Shooting buddy of mine has one and we ran a few boxes through it one day and had a blast.

Old Lett's bought years ago when they were closing. I have boxes of them. Did you get the 45 Colt Bisley as well? These are Hogue's bought many year ago from their clearance section...

Grin.. I wonder how it would do with a polymer coated 300 grain wide flat nose. I picked some up and am going to do some development work. They basically are like this, but coated.

Ed, I do not have the Bisley Turnbull but I do keep an eye out for one. The right gun, at the right time and price and I'm a buyer. Matter of fact, I bid on one last week but it went for more chips than I was willing to throw in. Sometimes I've gotta get out of my own mind and remember what they sold for new isn't a reflection of their market value today.

I have, or used to have a blasting caps box around here somewhere. I personally always avoided that skill set. Cross trained many things, but I stayed away from that.

.44 Snake gun wearin' Eagle Grips Kirinite stocks. Would love to see CZ/Colt come out with a new model blued Anaconda and Python. Pimpy. And I agree on the blued Colt notion. I would buy a new one if that were the case, probably ditch the rear sight though.
