The surreal thing about this thread is very personal in a way.

Years ago I was just a die hard archer that moved west.

Then I started to spike camp with my mules.

One moonlight night in wolves country I tried to figure out my 45 ACP high point. What a joke! I couldn't tell in the dark wtf was going on!


My good friend told me all the Vietnam cave rats liked single action colts for the nitty gritty. I have to agree a wheel gun will go "bang" pretty much when you want!

Perhaps a good compromise would be a Ruger 100 in 44 spl, or 45 spl?
