50 Yds Can Be Quite The Challenge

Hey Les, that 629 is an amazing gun, I have a 6" classic. It groups better at distance than one of my AK's does. I had a great load worked up, pleasant to shoot and very accurate, with a 240gr SWC cast bullet, and some HS6 powder. I used HS6 because it worked for the .45 too.

Looks like one 45ACP round would cover both of the smaller swingers with one round at that range...

That said.

I'd light those swingers up with my 10/22! It would sound like the bells of Christmas...

Are you planning on shooting smurfs?

Spending big bucks isnt' really necessary.

There are many rimfire pistols that will shoot accurately at 50 yds.

Of course, after the first time I shot a Model 41, I had to have one.

Mine is a 5" Classic. I have primarily shot PMC through it and was surprised at how accurate I was with that gun. Honestly, past 25 yards, I'm usually not the best shot with a pistol. That 629 makes me look good!

At 50 I can usually kick a little dirt up and hit the target.

Won a bet against a Glock lover with my P9 shooting bowling pins at 50 yards. Of course I knew I could do it, had practiced before, and he wanted to shoot his new ported Glock with 180 grain loads so I had a bit better plan.

I'm sure I could hit that backdrop 8 out of 10 times at that distance with a pistol.
