Oh...and that .454 Casull???? Practice, Practice, Practice makes for a very sore hand & forearm!  |
Practice indeed. I used to reload back in the day (Square Deal B from Dillon Precision) so 500+ rounds of .45 ACP would be the norm to bring to the range.
It was a lot of fun working up loads for accuracy/bullseye in the .45 and 9mm that I primarily used to shoot. Amazing how much accuracy can be gained from custom loads.
My favorite Springfield Armory 1911 with lot's of Wilson Combat parts had over 10,000 rounds on it and still going strong when I finally sold it. A true workhorse. I have the Trophy Match 1911 from them to this day.
Always wanted a nice custom Wilson Combat 1911 but never got around to it. Not nearly into it so no desire for a custom handgun anymore but I still try to practice regularly and stay proficient.
I'd love to study with Vitaly K for a day or two if I ever had that chance.
