But I am guessing that I must have been a good boy last year... A 460 S&W mag XVR and a sigma 40 cal. the trigger on the sigma is terrible, but the 460 is AWSOME. Now just to get enough brass to start reloading start reloading for the 460......
Very nice. I'm seriously considering the 460 as well. I'm still unsure if I should pay the extra for the 460 or be happy with something like a Taurus Raging Bull in 454Casull.
I would like to have a 460 or 500 S&W just to screw with people by letting them shoot it. I've shot .454 casull and would gladly shoot it all day long if the bullets weren't so f'n expensive.
A good range report will have to wait for spring, as sitting on a cold bench, in cold windy weather does not make for prime accuracy. But, a little informal shooting done so fare has turned in some pretty good results out to 125 yards with 200 grain hornady ammo out of the 460. Kept all 5 shots in a paper plate shooting off hand. The sigma, like I said shoots fairly well, but the trigger pull is terrible and loooong. As for prices, with the leopold scope and rings, the 460 came in about 1500 (my wife was santa, it really suprized me when she said I was getting it, it is by far the most expensive firearm and scope I have ever bought). The sigma I got on a promtional deal for 99 dollars when we bought the 460.
Either your wife got something "sparkly" for Christmas or you have superior skills. If the later, do you give lessons?
I don't know about skills, but over the years I have passed on Christmas gifts for myself so she and my daugter could have a good christmas (when times were tough), and I think this year they just felt since we had the money to get me a extravagant gift that I wanted, but would probably never buy for my self......... And if it was skills, why would I give away my secrets? :wink: (really If I was qualified to give lessons that were that good, I wold help you guys out......)
AHH Cmon don't be a baby it will warm up when ya start shooting that puppy. Just go out and go BANG BANG :wink:
