Now that's a bidness card...

Click to embiggen...
One of Denny's bidness cards, carefully labeled on the back with the date and "w/629-5 44mg @ 30ft D.A. Only"

It's a pretty cool tchotchke.  I keep it on my desk.

I think you misspelled it--it should be "Badass" Card.

One of the finest Smith & Wesson armorers in the country. Cold, frozen Yankeeland (Indiana) is lucky to have him.

I can believe that a man with a business card like that might know a thing or two about shooting.

Wow.

I was pleased this evening to make that group of 4 to the right from 30 yards offhand single action this evening with 240gr SWC I cast myself and loaded to the insane velocity of 1400-ish feet per second. Those other two were fired at 40 yards offhand weaver rather than iso and then I had to move forward to get enough light on the chrono to get a reading.

I suspect the creator of that business card could show me up with the same combo.

Scott J,

D.O. Reichard did all his competition shooting, including Bianchi Cup, with full rock and roll 240gr .44 Magnum loads. :)

Yeah, like I said: I'm sure he's on a whole different level than me.

My big show off with mine back in my 20's was to arrive at the Tuskeegee National Forest range, carry 6 gallon milk jugs filled with water out to 100, return to the firing line then go 6 for 6 offhand single action much to the amazement of fellow shooters.

I thought was good but really I guess I was just slightly better than averge. :)

My favorite .44 round is no longer made. Remington used to load a 210gr SJHP. At 10 feet from the muzzle (because at 5 all I recorded was muzzle blast) they clocked an average 1470 fps. They would turn those gallon jugs of water inside out.
