All the time. This is typical range day in the backyard with wife and boys. Its typical to run through 700-1500rds depending on what we are shooting. Obviously, the semi-autos go through ammo faster. I bring out a table of whatever I want to shoot and any requests from who's going out. Lay them out on the table and you just walk by and pickup what you feel like shooting like a buffet, load it up and go. I have 5 lanes on my range.

Very nice. I love to see wheel gun collections. Great pastime that gets overlooked too often. I had a Black Cherry Wrangler but it got sold. Also had a 4" 500 mag I sold and upgraded to the 8-3/8". I figure you're going to shoot the worlds most powerful handgun, do it from a long barrel, haha.

Yes, Sir. More interaction with the toy you are playing with. One of the reasons I like lever guns so much.

Nice. I really love the grip on a S&W 686. I don't know what it is but it just feels like it belongs in my hand. I hesitated when I saw a 6" 686 at a local shop. Was like $800. I think I picked up a 1911 thinking I come back the next time and get it. Haven't seen one since. That was 2 years ago. Now they are $900-$1000 online if you can find one.

I ended up buying the 357 Tracker and the model 44 while I wait for the price to drop on the 686 and 629
