    I actually feel very comfortable with them.
    I have fairly big hands and like to shoot SA mostly.
    With good reloads (target loads, easy), they are ok. When shooting full magnum ammo, they just don't absorb anything, so it can get a bit "tiring" after a while.

    A photo that shows the M29 still does the business, both one-shot kills, the spiker was a spinal shot at about 150 metres and the chest-shot hind was running through the bush at about 25 metres, dropping about 10 metres after being hit. Elmer Keith's 245 grain SWC load with 22 grains of 2400.
