Do some trading.
I got lucky.
In early 2020, my favorite LGS closed out Remington 5 1/2s, $100 per 5K, no hazmat since they’re local.

Of all the guns I traded or sold, a 6” 624 is the only one I regret letting go,
Man it was a great shooter.

Question about the Henry .357:
Is it a full-length action designed for rifle cartridges, or shorter like a Winchester 92/Marlin 94?
A double-ended wadcutter based on the SAECO 348 (.38 special) has a bevel at the nose.
Crimped in the groove, it should fit right up against and the chamber throats and align itself.

The Taurus isn’t an “elderly” S&W design. It is similar but distinctly different, especially the coil mainspring. IMO, the leaf mainspring of the S&W is the key to its smooth, even DA trigger (at...
PCP gun?
Does that make ‘em go crazy & kill each other?
Yep, starburst is what I get. I can usually get a decent dot, but I have to fiddle with brightness and get my progressive lenses in just the right spot.
I’ll check out the Kingslayer. Thanks!
If you have astigmatism, the dot will look funky.
Polarized lenses are supposed to help, but I haven’t seen a difference.
I thought the 25 was the bull barrel and the 26 tapered.
My 25-2 has the bull.
As a USPSA grand master once said, “Wood for show, rubber for go.”
Good luck.
I tried one on my Match Champion 10mm using the EGW mount with a Swamp Fox Justice.
Dead-accurate at first, then the zero started wandering. All screws good & tight. The same sight...

If that’s a “Pocket Blaster”, you’ve got some big pockets!
I’ve never heard anything regarding .357, but I’ve put together some very accurate loads in them with 148-grain solid base wadcutters, pushing them over 1,000 FPS.
DO NOT ATTEMPT WITH HOLLOW BASE...

I think you mean Tom Gibson.
Unless there’s another Tom at Accurate.

About to take another stab at mixing my own lube.
First try was Satan lube that I poured in muffin tins, but it sure was messy and the lube was hard to scrape completely out of the tins. It still...

Another innocent shooter is lured into The Cult.
Next it’ll be 16-gauge shotguns.
I don’t get the desire for a 2” .357.
2 3/4 to 3” gets you a full-length extractor stroke, better ballistics, longer sight radius, better recoil control and is just as concealable on a belt.

Leather work gloves for me.
My MP 8-cavity WC mold has one cavity that sticks.
Fastest way to get the bullet to drop is to push it out with my thumb.
