is my favorite revolver cartridge. I have owned several, but presently own only two. Both are S&W (Pre-sellout) model 57s. One is a Classic Hunter with 6 inch barrel, full under-rib, and unfluted cylinder. The other is a Mountain Gun.

I shoot cast bullets exclusively. The bullet I use is a H&G which weighs 225 gr when cast of lin-o-type. I load it from circa 600 fps for plinking and introducing new shooters, to 1,300+ fps for serious uses.
