I can relate Pitchy I have a 5 1/2 44 Bisley vaquero that is very fuzzy now. I could still be dangerous at 20 yards or so but when I bought it I could keep 5 245 gr Keith bullets over 9 gr of unique inside of 6 inches at 75 yards no problem.
They are a nice gun aren't they!

Pitchy, that is a fine looking sixgun, and also really good shooting too.

Thanks guys, I bought it brand new when they came out and my main carry gun in the woods :)
Can still hit the steel plate at 50 yards off hand pretty regular, probably try to hard at targets.
