Looking at a Webley

Angus Magnus · 05-25-2012, 01:28 PM

$450 is a steal for a Webley in such nice shape, shaved cylinder or not. Nice rifling, original finish, lanyard ring still present... I'll take it if you dont!

Personally I prefer the .455, its a sweet shooting cartridge with mild recoil. Fiocchi makes it, althought it is pricey. Although it was probably just the rare bad batch, I had a bad box once with 2 squibs and really dirty powder. I sent the remaining cartridges in and they swapped me for some nice .44mag. I have no problem shooting Fiocchi ammo, except for this cartridge that I have handloaded ever since.
