Thank you, took it for a walk in the snow on Christmas, ostensibly to look for wabbits. Nice to get out in the quiet for a bit.

My favorite revolver caliber is 32. I started with an inherited Colt Bisley in 32-20, 1956. Went all the way up to several 45 calibers and now have come back to 32 as my favorite. I cast and hand load 32 Long and Short Colt, 32 Long and Short S&W, 32 H&R Magnum, 327 Federal magnum, 32-20 and 32 Auto. All are Colt, S&W, Charter Arms, Taurus revolvers except the beautiful little Walther PP in 7.65

For long gun I'd have to go with 32 Winchester Special and 38-55. I've got or have had most of the sexy, hot, fast, more modern cartridges and like and use them, but the two I listed are on top.

I shoot for fun, and some of them high powered cartridges aren't fun, when you get old, and have Arthritis.
