The grips are Hogues. With the loads I use it's too painful to shoot with the standard wood peacemakers. I still shoot Silhouettes once in a while, mainly I hunt Deer and Wild boar with it now. I use a real heavy load of Lilgun(22.5 grains,it's a Ruger/Contender only load) with 200 grain Speer JHPs, averages 1575fps. With loads like this you need something to spread the recoil out.
I'm still jealous! That Smith is Sweet!

Thats's really cool Dave! I would love to hunt something with this beast. A guy over on the S&W forum site helped decode the serial # and it turns out it was one of the first 200 made during it's intital run in 1983. It's too bad my brother didn't keep all the original paperwork, box and other goodies. Oh well, it's a family keeper and I'll pass it down to my son or daughter, which ever one gets the bug!
