My favorite wheel gun

[geezer]

I've had many but only have three left. A Ruger .357 Vacquero, A Charter Arms Bulldog, and this, a Security Six with target grips and sights that I bought new. It's my favorite and is in excellent shape.

You got to give us more, groups, favorite loads, why is it better. I have a GP100 and it's a great revolver but the lock time is too slow, What kind of drills do you run? Open up were your new therapist!!!

LOL

Great gun have fun with it

I'm a Smith man but that's "one good looking revolver"!!!!!

I have an SP101 snubby, and would just love to be able to get a GP100 as well. Ruger is a very, very good gun.

I don't think that I have shot a wheel gun that I didn't like. Very fond of the Ruger and the Smith revolvers.

I love wheelguns - I'm a convert from plastic guns.
I'm trying to decide a good reason to buy another revolver.
EVERY new shooter that I take to the range ends up loving wheelguns as much or more than any other style. There's something intuitive and natural about how they shoot, load, etc.

There's still a lot to recommend the discontinued Security Six platform, even though the enhancements to the successor GP100 certainly improved durability, it also noticeably increased weight and size.
I love my Blackhawk (7.5" .45 Colt), and my wife loves her LCR-X.

Well, just great...now I have it in my head that I just have to have a Ruger GP100...my wife will never let me get it, because I have nothing I want to trade or sell to get the funds for it. Grrrrrrrr.

And there's a speed six in the classifieds even now. Someone please buy it. I'm trying to save money for vacation, and y'all aren't helping.

My favorite wheel Guns? S&W Models 686, 27, and, of course 29. What's not to like?

SAA or double action; blued, nicholed, stainless steel; doesn't matter to me. I love em all.
Colt, S&W, Dan Wesson, United Sporting Arms, Ruger; doesn't matter to me. I love em all.
22, 38, 357, 357Max, 44, 45 colt.
Accuracy does matter.

I shoot silhouette steel with looooong barrels. Slow and steady.

Favorites:
S&W Model 14,17,19,27..., USA Seville.., Colt Diamondback.., Ruger Security Six

Favorite wheel gun...in spite of being a 1911 person, I dearly love my S&W 66. It seems like I just can't miss with that gun!

 

[jimbo-indy]

Favorite wheel gun for me is my S&W610, 6 1/2", followed by the 6" model 19. For single action it's the SBH Hunter (44 mag) that my sons gave me for Christmas many years ago.

Love my target gray GP100!

 

[Magnum314]

Love this one as well! Very first handgun I ever bought was a Security Six back in 1987! Bought it at a no longer existing family gun shop. Came with the box, factory wood grips, and a set of new Pachmayr's. I believe they even threw in 50 rds for me...all for $150! Sweet revolver!

 

[Trebor657]

I have a few different wheel guns....Ruger SP 101 3", Taurus 85, and a couple more but my Colt Python still holds a special place in my collection....It was my duty gun beginning in 1977....Still shoots like new....

 

[Jroe]

My favorites are a Security Six that was my Dad's and a SP101 as well... Rugers are hard to beat!

Love my target gray GP100!

I was told that a 4 inch was not acceptable for a target pistol, so I have tried to limit myself to a 6 inch or 5.5 inch.
What are your thoughts?
Does the 4 inch mean that you limit yourself to a certain yardage?
