44 magnum…

[Davidearl765]

I’ve used open sights, Leupold 2/4/6x, variable Nikon, Burris, tasco world class, Simmons, Burris fast fire, and now use reiki on rmr on my new heavier recoiling stuff and holosun on the lighter 9s/45s and anything on 22s. I love optics on handguns. I won’t take the scopes off, but I won’t buy another. I think the holosun will be fine, I just like the trijicon. I run it on a 10mm long slide, but may put a holosun on it and move that to a 44. Have had a trim icon on a 686+ with hot loaded 158 magnums for a pretty good while shooting revolver in action pistol every week at my local. Cheaper optics have came alonnnnnnnnnnnnnng way in the last 3 years.

I ended up sending the sight back. Awesome sight, but after messing around with it a bit i decided it added a little too much weight to an already heavy gun. So, back to square one…

I decided to go with the Leupold Deltapoint Pro in 2.5 MOA and I'm very pleased with it. Spent a little time shooting and dialing it in today and I'm already looking forward to getting to hunt with this setup...

That is nice!!

 

[I didn't say]

What ammo did you go with? And what grain bullet?

What ammo did you go with? And what grain bullet?

I’ve messed around with a few different factory loads, mostly shooting a 240 grain bullet… Hornady, Fiocchi, Magtech, HSM. Honestly the gun has shot each of them quite well, but seems to like the Hornady’s best. I haven’t settled on an actual hunting load yet. I’m still doing a little research and hoping to start loading my own soon. Any suggestions would be appreciated
