I've been using a BladeTech 4" for both disciplines and it works "slick as glass". Not too pricey, either.
-
Hearthco moonclips are the one and only answer to your question ... Dave is a great guy to deal with
and guarantees his products 100%.

Found this little gem at a local Flea Market yesterday for $5.00
It is HUGE and weighs 1.5 lbs. ... Screwed right onto my old '68 F250 shifter.
A "must have" for the Revolver Purist.
-
I'll give it a try and can always use it as an everyday carry holster.
Thanks for the replies, Howard
-
Thanks for the info. I am a bit concerned about the
Trigger Guard not being fully covered.
Anyone have input regarding that issue ?
-
I'd like to know if this Holster is legal for IDPA ESR Division.

I should have specified that I am loading .40 caliber ... NOT 10mm
The other posters are talking about 10mm loads.
I just found out that I have a fractured T11 Vertebrae (which is causing some unreal pain)
and may not shoot the Nats after all, unless my Surgeon can patch me up in time.
I will probably revert back to a Minor Load if I actually get the chance to compete.
-
NO excessive pressure signs and the cases do not bulge at all ... The load is
actually pretty soft in the 6.5" 610 and I have used this same load for my STI
Limited Gun at least 10 years with OAL length at 1.165"
I suppose I will just go with the 1.200" OAL and hope for the best.
-
I finally worked up a load for my 6.5" 610 that will (hopefully) get me through
the upcoming Nationals without a problem.
4.6 gn N320, 180 RN Berry's, Fed 100's, Rem. Nickel Brass, loaded to 1.200"
I am averaging between 166.6 & 168.5 PF with this load and that is cutting is close.
If I reduce the OAL to 1.165" or so, will I achieve more velocity or just more pressure ?
Thank You for your thoughts, Howard

Ya know, Bemis's bullets did not shoot straight in my gun....
but he's your friend Howie, so I didn't beat him up about.
michaels
Maybe it's 'cause he walks funny ... kinda like John Wayne (Bless his heart).
I will pass along the bad news about the sideways bullets. I don't think
he has ever shot any through his STI ? Maybe he knows sumpin' we don't.
Seeya at the Open Match, Howie
-
Howie, next time you come down, bring the gun and I'll chrono it with my 610 load and we'll see where you end up. I'm right at 167-9 with 180 billys and 4.1 of clays, just load them long.
mike sousa
Otay, Mikey, I'll do that ... and maybe I can get "BOXES" to come along for the ride.
-
N320 4.9 grains, 165 jacketed bullet, 994 FPS, PF 164
N320 5.2 grains, 165 jacketed bullet, 1038 FPS, PF 171 (max load)
Over all length 1.126
Lead bullets will run a little faster with the same load.
COOL That's what I am looking for ... Thanks, Howard
-
How 'bout it folks ... Any Loading Data out there for the (3) Powders I listed above ???
Major and Minor Load Data will be appreciated.
-
I have plenty of 165 gr. Montana Gold bullets and lots of VV N320, 700X, & WSF Powder.
I also a good supply of WSP & Federal Small Pistol Primers.
I'm looking for a "comfortable" Major Load for my 6.5" 610, which I will be shooting
at the upcoming 2010 Nationals. I have severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in both wrists,
so Major Loads usually sting pretty good. At 67 yrs. old, half-blind, overweight, with
a bad "ticker", I don't expect to do anything more than have a good time. However, I
would like to gather as many points as possible and shooting Major will help.
If I "must" go to 180 gr. bullets, I can get a supply of Billy's pretty fast.
I would greatly appreciate any loading data you may have for the (3) Powders I listed above,
using 165 or 180 bullets.
Thank You for your time, Howard

Slight change of plan on the Fiber Optics.
Where is the best place (read that, best price) to
purchase a LPA Fiber Optic Set for my N-frames ?
-
Yowza, thems the wunz I'm lookin' fer ... Problem is, NO ONE Stocks them anymore and they have
been discontinued by the manufacturer.
Any good recommendations for an alternate
Fiber-optic Sight Set for N-frames ???
Hopefully, something I can get used to before the Nationals in October.
-
Anyone know where I can buy an ATS Sight Set for my 610 ?
-
Greg Ferris made them in the early 90s for the 610 modle and the 625 he did not get the manufacturing up and only made a hand full . I have one for a 610 hidding in the dark some place in my.....?Office?
I do not know if he will still make some or if he has any , you can finde him at Cedar Ridge Range .com and or I will ask him Sat or Sunday when we have our match
Jamie
I do not remember him putting a finish like that on them though
I would greatly appreciate you asking him if he might have
another one for a 610 laying around that he would sell. It looks to be
something which might help improve my reload time.
Thanks, Howard

Still hoping someone has information on where to find one
of these Moonclip Dispensers ...
-
Really? Winchester Supers? They seem like they don't want to fit the Hearthco moons.. are they just tight or do you need a different thickness moon? The Starline and RP brass seem to feel loose but not that bad. Maybe I will try them again. I have an ample supply of Winchester supers..
I, too, have plenty of once-fired Winchester .38 Super Brass and they are too tight in the Hearthco Clips and
will not seat all the way into the Cylinders of any of my (3) 627 Supers.
No problems at all with RP or Starline in any of these guns.
-
Thanks, I will check it out.
http://www.amazon.com/Mountaineering-Freed...0281&sr=8-1GREAT book. It was a bible for me about 15 years ago. Well written and thorough.
-
Yes, I figured the SAS Manual would be sufficient but I haven't found
it other than on a DVD.
I like Les Stroud's new book:http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_2_7?url=...sprefix=less+st
And then if you're looking for a little inspiration and realization on both what can happen to the human spirit as well as what the human spirit can do try:
http://www.amazon.com/Into-Thin-Air-Person...1275&sr=8-1
The S.A.S survival manual is also good.

I spend a lot of time in the Wilderness during the months with decent Weather and would
like to spend even more time there during the months with harsher climates and wide
temperature ranges from Day to Night ...
Therefore, I am looking for the Best Possible Books and Manuals available on the subject
of Mountain and Desert Survival ... I cannot utilized CD's, DVD's in the wilderness, so they
must be printed material only.
Please reply with your recommendations for such materials and also tips on purchasing
"must have" items for these types of survival.
Thanks for your input, Howard

I am looking to see more responses to this post. Have been thinking about buying one but will hold off until I am confident it has been thoroughly debugged
I shot both slow-fire and rapid-fire and it never skipped a beat except for the (3) light strikes (out of 100).
Accuracy was excellent with open sights and I will try a Leitz ELCAN sight next.
We have a .22 Rimfire 2-Gun Match on the 22nd at Richmond Rod & Gun (CA) and I hope to be ready by then.
