I bought one of these new last week. The fit of wood to metal and the overall finish is very good. Rifle is handy and works very well. A .357 in a rifle is a significantly more powerful round than in a revolver. I have been shooting it with the factory sights for now. Here is a target (very expensive target material) shot at 50 yards with 140 grain Hornady hollowpoint bullet. I have also shot it with 158 and 180 grain bullets. It feeds SWC cast bullets very well. So far, I like this one a lot. Image is sideways and group was below the dot. Sorry. [image]
