His Big Boy, not surprisingly, is very nice. The action is smooth, the trigger is good, and shooting .357 out of a hefty carbine like that means recoil is non-existent.
Site seems to be OK. Load issue should be resolved now.

A buddy at the range invited me to shoot his Big Boy today. Now I "need" one of my own.

Re: Now I Need A Big Boy .357
a BB Steel 357 has been calling my name for several months but so far, I've managed to ignore it .... with us already having a BB Steel 44 Mag, the only real rational I can give for buying a 357 is, I'd really like to have one ..
.. my more rational side keeps asking, Do you realize how many rounds of 44 ammo I can buy for the coast of a new rifle ???? .... the good thing is, being rational doesn't always win out ..

Re: Now I Need A Big Boy .357
.44 x ammo ÷ rational x (logic) ~.357 mag = BUY ONE.
It really is a simple formula.

I think my wife might have written that simple formula!
Always get an okay & a thumbs up here, and it's great to have such support for my retirement hobby.
