Smith & Wesson Governor

by Warhawk, Hot Springs, Arkansas, Thursday, December 13, 2012, 13:57 (4309 days ago)

Maybe I'm crazy, but the Smith & Wesson Governor has caught my eye and I just ordered one, $690 shipped to my FFL.

I have been watching for a good price on a used 329PD, but the Governor is quite a bit cheaper and only weight 2 ounces more than a 329. Seems awfully versatile too.

Anyway, maybe I'm nuts but I wanted one so I bought one <G>.

Does anyone have any experience with one of these?
Can it handle handloads for my 25-7?
Leather?
