Len,  I called Reeder once and was greeted with the same attitude as you described ( do what I say and quit bothering me) and also ordered his book on handgun hunting which I felt was more of a catalog of his products then anything else. I have to say that you went through a hell-of-a-go-around with his .510 before it was working properly which is a damm shame. This type of gunwork reminds me more of an assembly line rather then an individual, one-at-a-time custom handgun. A long time ago I found out that a mistake in as little as .002" can ruin a fine handgun and, like you, search out the best the industry has to offer. One day I will tell you of my experience with his .356GNR cartridge.....

Fowler, Since I live in the state of NJ I can`t carry my handguns ,however, when hunting my S&W 45 Colt Mtn.Gun as been on my side more then any other. She carries a load of HS-6 under a 280gr SWC-GC bullet for a little less then 1000fps...
