How do I come off?

I know SirHorns made one. But I have to ask because sometimes I do things that maybe considered a dick move, except for my personal opinion because we all have those. I just wanna make sure I'm not being mean to anyone or doing something that maybe considered so. I say checking myself before I wreck myself.

Also, you seem to be very calm,

You seem like when you have an interest in something you hone it and take it as far as you can.

How so my friend?

Your name is Sniper and you used to talk about long range shooting, and getting out and improving your personal record often.

A lot of people don't even have ONE thing at 20/21 where they can say "this is what I'm good at, this is what I do" whereas you do.

I still do occasionally. It's just that a lot of animals are in hibernation around this time. And personally I don't want to get attacked by a bear again. Black bears while small, they will be aggressive during winter months if you disturb them. I usually wait till spring and summer to do most of my hunting. And recently I bought some new weapons for the hunting. I got my hands on a Schofield Model 3 and that's a gun that was used in the Old West. I like the break action opening for reload on the revolver but the .45 Schofield isn't as powerful as the .45 Long Colt.

^^Oh, that's where Cp would know a little bit on the bit of guns if he ever used a break action revolver. Oh but I didn't know that, I thought I was just rambling.

—If there is a sign war, CP and Snipe are in charge of weaponry because DAYUM.

I have used break action revolvers.. and I do like them, within their limitations. Does your schofield lock up nice and tight?

I (and my gunsmith buddy) have never seen a modern break action revolver that has good timing.... meaning the holes in the cylinder line up with the forcing cone and barrel. I own a break action 22 that has such poor timing that it shaves lead at the forcing cone... and some spits out the side of the revolver! Obviously I dont shoot it after discovering that.

Even if the timing on your schofield is good... a break action frame can never be as stiff and solid as a revolver with a solid top. Nor can they handle as powerful a cartridge.

If you want a really superb yet reasonably affordable single action .45 Colt that will be dead nuts accurate and stand up to even brutal punishment... a Ruger Blackhawk is the only way to go. While I love the idea of break action revolvers... my favorite single action sidearm is my Ruger Super Blackhawk in .44 Magnum. It is tack driver accurate and I can hit a dinner plate sized target every single time with it at 100 yards.

Only revolver I would ever trade that one for is a buddy's Blackhawk convertible in 45 Colt... which is the most accurate, pleasant shooting revolver i ever held in my hands.

If you prefer something double action... get a Redhawk. If you prefer something even more cowboy than a blackhawk... get a Vaquero. All are fine shooters and built hell for stout.

If you are going to shoot 45 colt... or especially 45 schofield... you ought to invest in a basic setup for reloading ammo, and learn how to cast your own bullets. You will save a fortune. I make my own bullets that way and reload my own brass. A box of 38 or 357 runs me $ 4.00 because of that rather than $ 20-25. A box of 44 magnum costs me maybe $ 7 instead of $ 30. The equipment cost seems a lot up front. But by yhe time you reload 500 rounds a basic set of dies and a single stage press, and bullet mold, loading manual...etc... all pay for themselves. As you know 500 rounds is just a nice afternoon at the range, so its a quick payback.

Ahh. Yeah I've tested the grounds with the SAA and the Schofield. Compared to the SAA the Schofield is easier to reload but it isn't as powerful since it's the .45 Schofield is a bit smaller than .45 Long colt. I own a SAA. That gun is awesome. It's

Compared to the SAA the Schofield is easier to reload but it isn't as powerful since it's the .45 Schofield is a bit smaller than .45 Long colt. I own a SAA. That gun is awesome. It's never failed me once since on some hunting trips I took it with me to kill small game at a distance of around 10 yards. Popped a rabbit with it in the head and it didn't have a head left. .45 Long colt is pretty damn powerful and I was using jacketed hollow point ammunition. It's usually I take with me on hunting trips. But down here a box of .45 ACP and .45 Long colt run around about the same price as they do in Texas for yall. Though I will say .44 magnum runs around $ 25 around here so I guess ammunition stores here caught a break. I would make my own ammunition but unfortunately I don't know how. So until I learn I'm gonna be stuck with buying ammunition till then. I've heard about Ruger Blackhawks, I heard they have em in .454 Casull. I think I wanna try that too. And to answer about my Schofield it's doing fine. I have run into a bit of a problem with the hammer not cocking back all the way. It's like it jams up halfway before I can even get it down. Currently I'm busy solving that problem. Till then I'mma use the SAA. My SAA has never failed me and it fires greatly. The only thing I don't like about it is the time to reload and the fixed cylinder. But I've learned to like it a bit, now I know how Outlaws and Lawmen felt in the Old West during the 1880's. But from the sounds of it, it sounds like Break actions are not all that great.
