For the sake of this thread, we're talking about revolvers you use to shoot paper targets, bowling pins, metallic silhouettes, et al. While handgun hunting and self-defense most certainly are part of the revolver world, the aforementioned is the focus.
So, what "makes" a great...
I have over 30 bowling pins for sale or trade. Asking $90 for all. Great targets or whatever. They will take a lot of hits before they come apart. A couple of them have cracks in the outer coating but that won't harm the use. Any deal would need to be pretty close to Lebanon but we can...
Recently moved to a new area and I am just now looking into membership at the nearest outdoor/Indoor range which is about 50 miles away. I will attend an orientation and get a membership as soon as I can. In addition to recreational shooting I would like to try one or more of the competitions...
This may seem like an odd question, but there is a point. I am planning on setting up an area on our home range to practice bowling pin shooting. There is a local bowling alley that I will stop by and see if they discard or sell their worn out pins. If they just toss them for free, all well...

Hello Everyone, I have a case of bowling pins if someone wants them there yours. They make great targets. You need to pick them up at my house in Ridgefield. First PM gets them.
So, I recently acquired a Model 29. It was not added for a defensive piece, but rather because I just like them. Also, maybe, it would be good for bowling pin shooting, and most certainly for target shooting.
That said, it is a solid, nicely built wheelgun, that fits my hand well, so there is...
So, I recently acquired a revolver in .44 Magnum and like it very much thus far. Alas, trigger time has been hampered by real life, but I look forward to more times on the home range.
I'm also reading an old book (circa 1995) entitled Hand Cannons: The World's Most Powerful Handguns. In...
