So you’re giving the credit to the arrow and ignoring the Indian? I don’t think it found those targets all by itself

Phil, all the glory goes to the gun. I'm just the operator.

David, the SAA started life in 1919 as an SC and was upgraded in the mid 60's by Runge and Del Grego. I suspect for Shelly Gitman. It features a 34 inch barrel, choked extra full (.044) and it inks targets from the 16 yard line. But when I miss um, I miss um. LOP - 14 1/2 inches. DAC 1 1/2 inches. DAH 1 3/4 inches. No cast. Approximately 4 lb. trigger pull. Large Trap style BTF. Thick trap comb. No front bead sight, despite what the following picture shows.
