I realize this is a 44thread, but had grandkids over last week and their gramma, my wife came up in conversation. years ago we were driving one of my flat fender jeeps on the desert in low range, just bumbling along. A Jack was pacing the side of the jeep on her side. I handed her my model 19 and said shoot it. She didn't say anything, just took the revolver, and shot the poor rabbit on the run about 15 or 20 yards out. I stopped the jeep and asked her why she killed it. Her answer was well you said to. I replied yeah, but i didn't think you could. She inherited from me a model 66 which when you had to requalify for the ccw she would often outshoot patrol deputies. She was the first one i conned into shooting that ruger superredhawk 44magnum, with 180grain bullets. Didn't fase her at all. She didn't know it was suppose to be a boomer. In actuality she prefers those heavier revolvers, easier on her hands.
