[QUOTE="Snowyone, post: 2835815, member: 25800"] I used a ruger .45 with handloads for years and was good enough with it to shoot grouse and have something left to eat. Killed 7 head of elk with it but as with any pistol I shot till I was out of bullets and reloaded while watching to make sure. On one particular cow elk I shot found all the bullets between the hide and carcass on the far side. I've sense graduated to a .454 Casull and all I've got to shoot with it are Sitka blacktails in AK. Was no doubt when you hit one and never needed a second shot. Always replaced the empty though cause shots are dinner bells for grizz here. Freedom Arms Casull is a bit heavy so got frisky and bought a 10mm Kimber for hiking and being more compact. Mistake on my part cause so far I haven't faith in its reliability. Doesn't feed all the time so I'm back to my Casull and a better chest holster. Make darn sure to run a bunch of shells through your new gun for aim ability and reliability and confidence. [/QUOTE]
