He's got an official webpage miculek.com/ and video series call Shoot Fast. It is accessible from his website, or you tube. Kind of a sit down with Jerry and talk about guns and shooting. He's got stuff from shooting 3 gun, revolvers, M1 Garand, etc. For the most part it is not a tutorial/how-to series, but entertaining to watch.

.....Fast Finger Miculek !!!!
......Before I had The Internet, I would pick up C-Band Satellite Channels. One of this Channels was The Johnny Rowland's "Shooting Show", where Jerry Miculek would be a featured shooter. Johnny, Jerry, and the Clarks ( of Clark's Custom Guns ) was very close; Jerry was married to Kay Clark ( Jim Clark's daughter ).

Johnny Rowland's Shooting Show .....I first learn about Jerry Miculek & Larry Pratt ( of The Gunowners of America ) from watching Johnny Rowland's Shooting Show during the early '90s .......About Johnny Rowland's 460 Rowland Cartridge : This Cartridge is longer and thicker than the .45acp, but the bullet sets deeper, making the overall length the same as the .45acp, thus making it compatible for use in the .45 acp magazines. Although the O.A.L. is the same, it requires a different barrel. The energy of the .460 Rowland is compared to that of the 44 magnum, with velosities of 1,347 fps for the 230 gr. Gold Dot JHP, and a power factor of 309. Compare that to the .50 caliber GunCraft pistol, or the .45acp. Georgia Arms manufactures the loaded .460 Rowland, as well as Triton. The Georgia Arms loaded for the 185 gr. Nosler JHP will get 1550 fps, with 987 Ft. Lbs. of energy at $25.50 per 50 rds. Their 185 gr, JHP defense load will get 1400 fps, with 805 Ft. Lbs. of energy. And finally; The Georgia Arms loaded 230 gr. Gold Dot HP will give you 1350 fps, with 931 Ft. Lbs. of energy. The conversion Barrel is a drop in, with a compensated bushing, full length guide rod, and 30 lb. recoil spring. ......More on the conversion can found at Clark Custom Guns and Georgia Arms. I have actually met Johnny Rowland at the '99 shot show, with the Clarks, and Jerry Miculek. Johnny had his .460 Rowland conversion with him , on the Kimber that he shot often on his weekly shooting show. I've read several articles of his conversion from Patrick Sweeney, John Taffin, and others.The Clarks have been the manufacturers of this conversion, and Georgia Arms has been the primary manufacturer of the cartridge. The two have had a long working relationship with Johnny Rowland and his shooting show over the years.
