Rec'd. the revolver a few days ago and have had a chance to wring it out!!
Specs. cal. .45 Colt
barrel 4 5/8"
Bore .452"
Cyl. .452"
B/C Gap .003"
Test load: Chambers 250gr. "cowboy" lubed with dry moly, sized .453"
Had to test over sandbags as do not have Ransom adapter for unusual grip frame! Revolver shot to point of aim(unusual for fixed sight guns), no allowance was required for height or windage. 2 1/2" groups were the norm. at 25 yds. Fit and finish are excellent....all in all a great gun with all the olde tyme features, 3 clicks on the sear....firing pin on the hammer....no dumb transfer bar sys. A well made gun, equal to many more exp. ones, it will be interesting to see how it holds up.( Note: to keep weight down(like orig.)...top strap and chamber walls are necessarily thin and are not intended for heavy .45 Colt loads that some use in Ruger Blackhawks)
