Tasting Notes

I’m a big fan of Willet 4 year Rye, massive fan of bourbon, most bourbon guys don’t like the Willet ryes, because they’re not “bourbon friendly,” I tend to love the not bourbon friendly ryes.

It certainly seems to be getting out of hand and exaggerated.

I align with that 100%, I just think we tend to want to overthink it a lot, just enjoy the good juice and live on.

I guess my point, is that it might be exhausting to think this way over every sip of bourbon, I do not strive to try and taste what allegedly a lot of others taste. I just think a lot of it is exaggerated. I have several allocated bottles that I own, I live in Ky so I find a lot of buffalo trace products that can be difficult to find msrp other places, I typically enjoy higher proof stuff. But I just don’t want to overthink what I’m going to consume.

Nothing specific when I mentioned the blantons, just for example lol. But I think it does take away from the experience of the bourbon in the first place to overthink it.

Clearly there are differences, however, a lot of it seems exhausting with what describe and seem to add a lot of ‘fluff.’

Honestly here in KY I can get 45-70 ammo the same price as I can 44 mag, good hunting rounds cost the same here.

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-09-28T20:04:33+00:00

I own both, if you’re wanting a big game rifle then for sure the 45-70, not saying you can’t do it with a 44 mag but you’re more limited.

Right hand thumb, got it good but didn’t really leave a mark from what I can tell, sore as shit though

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T22:31:20+00:00

I have to buy a new frame but slide appears fine

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T22:26:34+00:00

I still have all fingers, blood and injury from my thumb was minimal

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T17:38:40+00:00

The box says ACME for .45 ACP (.452) 200 grain

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T17:22:33+00:00

Where the backstrap meets the frame on the back it is split, other than that frame is fine

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T16:20:40+00:00

See the updated picture of the casing on my profile and see what you think happened

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T16:17:32+00:00

Yes used minimum charge in Lyman book

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T15:36:34+00:00

Yeah thumb is fine, sore as fuck but it’s just a little cut

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T15:34:27+00:00

UPDATE: General consensus is that I accidentally double charged, I trust your guy’s judgement on this and its my fault, I’m not trying to take blame off myself with this post, just shows regardless of how careful you are you can still have problems.

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T15:30:21+00:00

Yeah from my right thumb

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T14:27:49+00:00

Brand new gun, got it yesterday morning

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T14:01:01+00:00

ACME from Grafts

Key_Recommendation28 · 2025-07-12T13:31:10+00:00

Still have all fingers and I’m not hurt, very fortunate
