For me Red dot in the 6 grain area works in my H&R Handi Rifle in .45 colt.

Interesting looking rifle. Be nice to be able to put a scope or red dot on the ol Streak. But since that is not happening this would be a viable option. Price is not bad either.

I have mostly shot mine with 300 gr, 240 gr, and 200 gr cast boolits, first with gas check, the lighter ones are plain base.

Like Nobade I have used swaged balls for .36 cal cap and ball with good effect.

Agree with dtknowles #10 post. I have bought a pair of H&R 732/733 revolvers. Now I shoot red dot in mine, but they would work fine with holy black.

I love my Rock Island 206. Only thing I did was swap out the overmolded rubber grips for smaller checkered wood grips from the Rock Island factory in part so my speed loader would work.
