I am looking for Bisley grips with finger grooves. Anyone know where I can get them? All I have found are the smooth grips. I think the grooves will help me position my hand in the same place every time. That has got to help my shooting. Something has to! At 50 yards, I am all over the place. Two here, one there and two up there. If I can’t get this thing to group at the range, I can’t expect to hit anything in the field. I also shoot 22LR, 357mag and 357max but don’t have this problem with them. All of these other guns have finger grooves. The 44mag has more recoil but I have a Leupold red dot on it, so it not much more. I think part of the problem is hand placement. How do you guys get the same hand placement with the smooth grips? | ||

With finger grooves you would be stopping the revolver from freeley moving under Recoil.This is what makes the recoil seem less.I have fairly big hands and getting the same grip on the stocks seems to be of no problem.I guess maybe I dont understand what your problem is.Are you only using it for target work and not Hunting??? | |||

Thanks for your help. All the other pistols I shoot have finger groove grips. They group OK for me but with the smooth Bisley grips, I am all over the target. Main use will be hunting deer and hogs. Unless I can keep my shots inside a four or five inch circle at 50 yards while shooting off a benchrest, I won't use this pistol. I expect and get two inch 50 yard groups with my Contender. Thanks again for your interest. Richar | |||

I've just shot mine enough that hand placement is automatic. Check on Midway's site for grips for the Bisley. Another option may be the use of a glove with the small rubber dots that may give you grip on the revolver. Batting or medical tape is also an option, although a messy one. If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

I wear Bicycle gloves with leather palms and gel inserts.It gives me good purchase on the grips.With my Bisley in 45 Colt and 300 gr.Hard cast bullets it will do 4-5" groups at 100 yds off of bags with Iron sights.I use H110 or N110 and am getting about 1350FPS on my Pact Chrono.I dont know what bullets you are using ,but would suggest the heavier cast bullets for better accuracy(works for me)Don`t give up on the Gun,they are shooters.maybe you just need to make a few adjustments to your Shooting style to get what you want. Good luck OB | |||

I think the reason for the loss of accuracy with the Bisley grips is due to the fact that all your other revolvers have the same grips and that's what you're used to. Before you replace the grips on the Bisley, try practicing with it a little more and see if your accuracy doesn't improve. My .357 has a finger grooved Pachmeyer grip and I was plenty accurate with it. Then I bought a SRH .44 Mag and my accuracy went downhill. Not only was the .44 much more of a handful, but the grips were way different from what I was accustomed to. Well, I've shot several hundred rounds through the .44 now and I am comfortable shooting it now. I know how its going to recoil and my hands automatically grip the revolver where they should. My accuracy has increase significantly and I didn't have to change grips. All I did was practice until I got it down. I would recommend that over changing the grips.
