Pat Riot Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Well, long story short I picked up my S&W model 25 Classic yesterday. What a nice revolver. I took it to the range right away and tried 3 loads in it that my Vaqueros like. The 25 likes them too. I just had to take some “nicer than range” shots of it this morning. They aren’t as nice as @Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663’s photos but the gun looks nice. I still have my left hand in a brace so shooting was all one handed / free hand. It really seems to like my 900 FPS 205 grain RNFP load best. I had such a great time shooting this revolver. I truly believe it may become my favorite, of course all my revolvers are “favorites”, but this one might be extra special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Well done Pat! I suspect the “spray and pray” shooters in nearby lanes were impressed with your duelist groups. It’s juvenile I know, but I strive to put small groups out there for them to look at while they are rapidly emptying their bottom feeders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is fine with me. Actually, I do see the younger guys that work at the range checking out my revolvers through the windows between the range counter and the range. Actually, now that I think about it, these guys do ask me how long it took to learn to shoot one handed...with both hands. (when I don’t have a brace on one of my hands) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
