357 mag handi
« on: March 10, 2009, 05:57:01 PM »
Wish I could find a 357 handi out here in the Arizona territory. Seems like no dealers will stock or order one. the myth of the 500 yard western shot persist..Almost everything I have killed here has been at a 150 yards max.with most at well under a 100 yards. Guess that makes it harder to sell the ultra-mags and stuff.Contrary to what most writers and magazines state the old stuff like the 32 special,30-30 and 35 rem work fine out here in the wooly west.

Bud's has the SB1 combo for $290 shipped, you could sell the slug barrel and be about even for the cost of the rifle alone, TGS has an SB2 357 for $268.

Order that 357 online from Bud's. Have it sent to an FFL near you. Pay him the transfer
fee, and your in business! ;D Be careful. When you find out how easy this to do, you
will probably do it way more than you should! :o ;D

Dicks list NEG72598 in p. 45 of their special order book. .357 with Syn stock, scope base, no sights. I'd order it if I knew it was SB2, but since I don't, I'll get an accessory barrel. Dick's orders from Jerry's Sport Center, Bill Hicks and Acushot. So if one of those 3 has it, you are G2G. Oh yeah, it is $239.99

Bob nailed that one, the #72598 is definitely the SB1 357 Mag (SB1-S35).  ;)
