The rugers nice, other than being a smidge portly, the frail stainless finish and the lack of adjustment in the rear sight. Jack of all trades, master of none. Wouldn't be too worried holding either, both will kill either stone fkin dead provided you can stop shaking long enough to put the bead on a potentially angry, highly animated fur covered target the size of a softball with a rope attached to it jumping through the bush. Reminds me, haven't done any dryfiring with the new Hd projector, surround sound and animal planet channel.
