If you center punch them, you don't waste any meat.



If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out.

Very nice looking gun, I"ll bet it shoots as good as it looks. Whitworth probably has some nice, warm loads already in mind for your gun. Something that will knock the fur right off a bear.

Simly stunning. Mind sharing the price? PM is ok if you do not wish to disclose in public.

Had a chance to shoot cottonstalk's new revolver last Friday, and all I can say is WOW!! What a slick piece it is! Accurate, balanced, beautiful. Love the extended grip frame and I think I like it more than an unmodified Bisley -- awesome grip frame!

Here is a photo of the gun with my .500 Maximum so that you can compare the grip frames. Keep in mind that my Bisley isn't standard either and has been modified to give the shooter a little more room between their knuckle and the trigger guard.

We went throught the alot of ammo,from 440s @ 950,350s in the 1400+ ball park,370s and 440s @ 1350.Probably shot close to 50 rounds and I was still ready to shoot more but ammo was running thin. I was impressed at how well this grip frame handled recoil,and how accurate all these loads were.Handloads,Buffalo Bore,and Grizzly ammo all performed well within hunting accuracy,and none were tailored loads to this piece.Can't wail to see what comes from a little time at the bench.

The blue bisley of whit's handled well and shoots amazing but you definately know when the powder burns. I think I found my recoil ceiling.

I think I could shoot that grip frame with any loads all day long! Awesome piece, cottonstalk!

Cottonstalk, I am glad that you like that revolver. I would be in the doghouse if you didn't

Great looking revolver. I like the looks of it. I think it would be over the top of my recoil tolerance though. I'm turning into a puss in my old age and It pisses me off. Oh I like the Bisely also. In fact, I had a 44 mag Vaquero that had an unaltered Ruger Biseley frame. I didn't have any trouble with bashing my finger with that gun. None at all but it's probably not in the same class as the two above. DW
