Welcome, from one newcomer to another.

agreed. It was a great gun that is great to shoot .38 special, but the .357 was not enjoyable. The muscle between my thumb & index finger is still sore.

Thanks Tony. I noticed your local range is SCFGPA; can you recommend any good outdoor rifle ranges in the area? I just purchased a mosin nagant (my 1st project gun), and I'd like to try some long(er) distance shooting when it gets warmer. Indoors, I just shoot at RTSP. Thanks - J

Thank you all. Makes me glad to see such a welcoming community on the net. I'm looking forward to learning a lot from all of you. Cheers, J

Thank you

now we have about 30 rounds of .357 that'll be sitting in the range bag for a while

I've been posting here and there, but haven't formally introduced myself. This seems to be a great collection of folks. Glad to be a member.

I just got my membership tonight! Love that place.

2nd that!

So JWglock23 and I went to RTSP tonight to test out his new 340pd. While I'm sure most of you know, this is an ultralight (about 11oz I believe) 5-shot revolver made of scandium alloy with a titanium cylinder. In general, I am relatively new to firearms. I have shot several pistols, but have never fired a handgun that shoots a .357 magnum round. Having said that - WOW! I could not believe how jarred I was by the kick. After 15-20 rounds, I had to switch back to .38 special to give my hands and forearms a break. My b*tching aside, that is a damn fine wheel gun and I loved shooting it. IMHO, it'd be a great deep concealed primary or solid backup (for those of you fortunate enough to be allowed to carry in this state). Once Bedminster PD processes my FID (71 days and counting), this may be one of my first purchases.

I'll be there with JW and the fiancees, sendin em downrange. Might be later in the day though. See you there.

looks great bud! can't wait to shoot it
