We are probably talking the same bullet. 265 long nose GC

I really like that bullet. It shots really tight groups, and so far, I haven't found anything living that will stop it; every animal I've shot with it gives me a goes-in and a goes-out hole (including my bison).
One year up at Linebaugh's Bore-Bore seminar, my gun and that load penetrated 41" of wet newspaper (was an easy number to remember).

I've seen Fermin's new rear blades. Ronnie Wells of RW grip frames is making them for him. Looks like Ronnie took my suggestion and offers a V notch wider than the Ruger and closer to the Freedom Arms V. :-)
My biggest concern on those "blades" would be strength and durability. Seem like a mighty thin piece of metal holding a lot of mass out horizontally.
I'll see Ronnie this summer and ask them to bring a few of Fermin's blades with him.
