asmurff Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 I'm seriously considering a Taurus Judge with the 6.5" barrel just hadn't decided on the 2.5" or 3" chamber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asmurff Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I ordered the 6.5" barrel with 2.5" chamber one yesterday from Buds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted October 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Range report.Fiocchi 45 colt 250gr hits where it is aimed, since these are for cowboy action the recoil is pretty manageable. Winchester PDX1 a bit high but still in the paper plate, the 3 disc they have were within a 2" group a tad stout on the recoil. Winchester Rifled Slug Hollow points hey what can you say about a slug moving at 1830 fps, I thought this would be the worse recoil, but it was milder than the PDX. This is one I want to play with more.AA #9 shot of 7 yards big pattern not much recoil.Had some #6 shot by Gamebore which are 65mm in length and made in the UK, however they wouldn't go into the cylinder they are about 2-3mm longer than the American made shells. Guess I'll find someone with a 3" chambered .410 and give them to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 What are you going to use it for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Mainly for plinking and target shooting. Once I find a across chest holster for it I'll carry it while fishing from the shore for the occasional rattlesnake. I honestly bought it for fun more than anything else.

Microgunner Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 A fishing companion sounds like an ideal use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmike Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have one, a blued 6 incher with the 2.5" chamber. I have a shoulder rig for it, it is actually quite comfortable and concealable. Only problem I had was when I tried small diameter shot shells, #7's, I got a face full of shot that bounced off the target frame at 7 yards. The shot spreads very quickly due to the rifled barrel..... I only load it with OO buck and .45 lc. I really like the looks of the new ones with the polymer frames..... :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
