Andy or Scott or DD, i used to shoot Magtech out of the .38 and .45 ( as well as HSM)..

are those even good practice rounds? i dont want to run crap ammo that can do more harm than good...

they are only 14.99 a box, if anything ill just get the Winchester or Remington rounds for 18.99 but was wondering if the cheaper stuff would be a good option or not?

picked up a Blackhawk SERPA holster, nice, really fast, was going to get a Crossfire but the gun stuck in it and i didnt like that, the Blackhawk is a bit bulky, but in cooler weather it wont be an issue to conceal it, id need to wear a button up shirt to do it now...

also bought the Pachmayr Tactical Glove, slip on grip like the Hogue, absolutely love it, adds just enough width to fully fill my hand perfectly, about 1/8th in on each side... great rubber finger grooves and feel, check one out if you havent already....

Your ammo is going to be about .25 per round.
I wouldn't go with either of what you listed when name brand is just a few pennies more.

i ended up just getting the Winchester Target loads, 61 bucks for 200 of them, not too bad, .30 cents a round... still cheaper than buying it by the single box...

put 180 rounds down, gun functions like a dream... not 1 FTF or FTE, no hiccups, nothing, and there were other people shooting Colts and Rugers that jammed, so im happy....

havent shot for over a year, so i can tighten up with this for sure... probably will enter the next steel comp they have at the range up the street...

there was a steel comp today, next one isnt till December but one guy said possible there could be one in November depending on the hunting season and how many people will come and whatnot....

so for sure Dec, i think 7th...

never shot a .40 till today... very controllable round, matter of fact, it seems weak to me... now i really want a 10mm rofl

going to buy a 5 shot .357 revolver, this guns a bit bulky, wont be a problem in the winter, but i dont wear coats and sh!t, so... love the gun tho, not getting rid of it...

they had some nice Taurus .357 revolvers for 260 used, stainless, and in excellent shape, gonna grab one of them for cooler months, and every other day its not below freezing rofl

thanks guys for your help in all this

Taurus is fine in a wheel gun as long as you don't shoot it.....much. Full house.357 loads and you'll be sending it back to Taurus for tightening.

The GP100 or a Smith is the right way to go.

What about an sp101?

Used Smith's are about 500 so it's doable, I figured Taurus would be good considering they have the raging thirty and bull...

Never handled one, but they get good reviews.
Would much rather have a Ruger than a Taurus.

SP101 is great for a 5 shot short barrel, small frame but the GP is what a .357 is supposed to be.

the main reason i was going to get a revolver is the size, the 5 shot 2 inch guns are very small, and easy to conceal... the GP grips look to be the size of regular smith 686's, which is bigger than the XD i have...

my mom has a LS60 which is an awesome gun, i guess cops use them alot for boot guns, but they arent cheap (800+)...

the SP101 keeps with that small grip, small frame, which would be really easy to conceal it, even in a sweatshirt pocket or whatnot...

i like the large frame guns like the 686 too, but they are just too big for what im aiming for...

Old school for me.

S&W Model 15-3. Add six Remington 158 grain hp's +P.

It's a retired LEO carry piece, best double action pull you'll ever stroke. Lock up & timing spot on.

Perfection in blued steel and walnut.

Had a few in the past. One M-19 in 6" and a pair of 4" M-66. Even had a M-17 in 8 3/8" w/ a 2x Leupold on it!

Also had the FBI favorite M-66 the heavy 3" w/ the round butt combats on it. That was a nice looking piece, but never could get it too shoot.

My small wheelgun role is filled by a Smith mod 36(no dash) and a 1960's Colt Diamondback.

I have the 6" Target version.
The highest evolution of the (production) wheel gun, IMO.
This thing shoots where you are pointing it.
Feed it HBWC's and cut up the center of the target.

Smith was doing the "glass rod breaking" thing decades before Geissele came along with that description.
