    That's a sweet looking pipe... I'm guessing its a "Q" Ball shape
    Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated...

    Took a Castello Natural Vergin out to the range with me yesterday. Although the photo does not show the pipe as well as hoped, it is pretty big and a little heavy. Probably the heaviest Castello I own, so my jaw muscles were exersized clenching the pipe the entire time at the range. Oh, and it was filled with Exclusive. Another guy showed up with a black powder revolver. He made far more smoke than I.

    Excellent grouping! SWC bullets? Looks like nice clean cut holes. I like the pipe and the 1911. G10 grips?

    Thought they they were VZ. I think I am loading my home cast H&G 68 200gr. clone right at 1.250 as well. I use Bullseye instead though. I think right @ 4.5gr. My manual is boxed up from the move so can't be too sure. Are they powder coated or copper coated?
