| Hi from Western Wisocnsin
Greetings from the "Coulee" region in Western Wisconsin. A couple of weeks ago I bought a new #1S in 45/70 to try heavier lead because I was frustrated with the 405 gr limitation for my 1895 marlin GS. As posted earlier I am still looking for a sweet shooting load. The trials of going to the range weighs heavily on my soul.
Looking at my gun storage I see two 10/22's, one Charger, one 77/22 all weather in 22LR, one 77 MK-2 all weather in 308, one Super Redhawk, and finally my palm pistol, the LC-9.
Thanks all of you for sharing your experience and wisdom on this forum.

Welcome from SW Florida. Nice bunch of Rugers ya got there. That's some heavy lead you're putting down the range! I recently got a M77 Hawkeye Alaskan chambered in 375 Ruger and the box of 300 gr Hornady I've put through it sure put a wallop on my shoulder.
