It is a good shooting sixgun
I have been very fortunate, I own exactly one revolver that doesn't shoot well, a Ruger 32 H&R/32-20 that a local SASS member had cut to 4 5/8" and milled for fixed sights. I have never tried jacketed in it, but every cast bullet I have tried leaded horribly and shot patterns not groups, I have come close to selling it several times but it was a birthday present from my beautiful bride. This Flattop, and my Accusport Bisley are two excellent shooting sixguns, the Bisley once turned in a 1 1/4" 5 shot group with a 289gr SWC loaded over a case of FFFg. I have been wooed by my FA454, and it is the finest gun I have ever owned, but I sure pack this Flattop a lot, so much it is missing bluing. My normal load is the 289gr SWC over 8.5-9.0 grs of Unique, it works, it has always worked, and while I have tried other loads, this I have found to be my best utility load in the 45 Colt.
