Trouble at the Saloon this morning.......
Posted: Wed Oct 11, 2023 2:27 pm
So I was headed down to the Bulls Eye Saloon this morning with what I think is my sweetest shootin' 45 combo...the Henry 45 Colt Carbine tube feeder
the S&W Model 25-7 in 45 Colt and one of my CCW .45 ACP shooters the brawny little BBR 3.1
I pull in near the Saloon and spot a very shady character messin around the door and stop him in his tracks whippin out my BBR 1911.
Ask him what he lookin for and he says some work. So I say here hold these targets while I take my shots and you better hope this is my lucky day punk!
Told the bandit in black to drop his irons and get back there some yards and don't dare move till I tell ya.
First up was the old style Heny carbine with 16 inch barrel stoked with my 325 gr 45 Colt heavy hitters. Love this a bit more than my newer X model 45 because it cycles the big lead slick as any with no hang up unlike the X Model you have to jiggle a bit. Think the old Henry has a better shell lifter as it is different than the X. About 30 yds back with the ghost ring sitting on orange dot and standing position not bad at all and the target holding thug lives another round!
Next is my Smith Model 25 shooting my 255 gr. MB bullets over 8.5 Unique. I forgot how smooth and quick the DA pull is on this Smith and several shots got off right before I was ready. All DA shooting I got several snake eyes on the target 12 yds away as Mr. Man in Black target holder was frozen in place and he lived again!
Last I shot my favorite 45 ACP shooter the Little Fat Boy BBR. With the right tight grip which is push forward with shooting hand and pulling back with weak hand you get a very rigid shooting platform which is required with this guy. Target boy down there was shaking in his boots now with the little beast pointed his way. Not bad at all with 7 shots of my carry load 230 gr XTP with 6.5 Unique...man love how it shoots!
So I was done and before I could tell the crud he could leave he was half way down the trail and don't think he's coming back no time soon!
Yep my favorite 45 shooters right here today!
