I'm planning on being there by around 7 ish.  Inspector will be there early too.  Likely before me. 

this is what I plan on bringing:

Ruger GP100, 6" barrel 357magnum
Ruger SBH, 7.5" barrel 44magnum
Ruger Single Ten, 5.5" barrel 22LR
S&W 586, 4" barrel 357magnum
S&W 629, 5" barrel 44magnum


Not sure yet, but thinking:

S&W 686+ 6" barrel (.357) [good comparison with GP100 with 6" barrel]
S&W Model 28 (6" barrel, at least I think) (.357)
Ruger Redhawk (.44 Mag, but hope I can find some .44 Spl)
S&W Model 57 (.41 Mag, if I can find or scrounge up ammo)

also
Glock 17 with RMR
High Standard .22 lr

the usual kind is ok
357:  158 grain or 125
44:  240 grain or 210
I wouldn't get anything crazy like buffalo bore or anything like that unless you know the firearm can handle it, but any normal ammo should be ok

My .38 SPL is Remington UMC 130 gr (bulk pack)

Went to SEC today and picked up:
Blazer .357 Mag 158 gr JHP
Blazer .44 Mag 240 gr JHP
Black Hills Ammunition .44 SPL 210 gr (Cowboy shooter ammo)

Have some misc other ammo in a can that I’d have to dig through. Saw some .41 Mag, but would prefer to find some new(er) production stuff to shoot.

Can i buy the cheapest range ammo i can find? I know some guys are picky about their quality ammo.

Revolvers aren't picky. I haven't seen any .357 or .44 magnum ammo for sale at LGS that isn't good quality, even the cheapest stuff.

Do you own a revolver? Never mind, you don't own any guns, ammo or reloading stuff . . . focus.

Holy shit is .44 Mag expensive. Even .44 SPL wasn’t much cheaper.  :shake:

Whoa!  What a deal!!  Looked at some reviews on these new revolvers. They are essentially a single six except for an alloy frame and waaaay cheaper.  Should be a real solid shooter!

I try to reload 44mag as much as I can or stockpile when I find a good deal which is rare

My revolver did not like Russian steel case ammo.
Was difficult to eject the cases. It would get stuck in the cylinder. Had to push them out with a little screwdriver
Blazer aluminum works fine
