Hickok45 Goes Long With The S&W Model 29 Revolver

Hickok45 is standing in for Dirty Harry.

Just how accurate is the iconic .44 Magnum Smith & Wesson Model 29?

Watch as YouTuber Hickok45 sees just how long he can go with the classic revolver in this video:

Clint Eastwood played the famous role of Dirty Harry armed with a Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolver. In the mighty .44 magnum cartridge, this revolver appeared in many movies, making a reputation for putting down thugs.

This time, the great Hickok45 is putting the hurt on some targets. At long distances, the hard-hitting .44 magnum bullets hammer targets with authority. You see that even though more beastly cartridges like the .500 S&W Magnum have come along, the .44 Magnum will still always get the job done.
