Just wanted to say hello to everyone and say thanks for a jam-up forum! I have enjoyed countless hours going over everyone's posts and info.I'm in the process of acquiring a ss .445 sm nib palmer era and I am so excited! I've been a handgun hunter for over thirty-five years and have taken a lot of game with my  model 57,629 classic hunter,and my 629 classic dx but have always wanted a DW .445 so i posted a wanted post on one of my forums and lo and behold a fellow member said he had it and would let it go.Talk about dream come true! Anyway glad to be here and thanks.

                                Many Thanks, GunSite

Welcome aboard Raymond. Beware, once you get that bad boy we are all going to nag you for some cool-pics!

To the paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers:

if you find one...what's your plan?

Welcome Raymond!

 

The .445 is a real powerhouse. It shouldn't be much more than your Smith 29, Dan Wessons are big, heavy guns. I've been known to plink with mine, using full-power 300 grain loads. Range rats don't like me too much. big-grin

That sort of gives "plink" a whole new dimension! wow

Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.
