Scoping the Ruger Bisley Super Blackhawk 454 Casull did not come without some trepidation. I’ve put scope on firearms that sent me flying backward while my eyeballs remain at their original location, but the scope always stayed put. I’m not camera friendly, but my son Joe did captured one of […]

A look at Ruger's ARX Ammunition
Firearms, cartridges and component design are rapidly and dramatically changing, although much of this change may not be visually obvious. Alloy steel or stainless steel may look the same when blackened, and a special steel alloy and heat treatment used to fabricate a super tough revolver cylinder may look the […]
Ruger's LCR 327 Federal Magnum
It is possible, after accumulating extensive experience with the 22 LR, 22 Magnum, 38 Special, 9mm Luger, and 357 Magnum versions of the LCR, that I would consider the latest 327 Federal Magnum to be the optimal chamber for this double action revolver. The LCR joins multiple SP101 and Single-Six […]

Ruger's 77/44 Rotary Magazine Carbine Part II
One of the nice things about having a chronograph that functions with an LCD light source is that neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night prevent clocking bullets… even if the mailman occasionally misses the ride up the mountain road that leads up from the flatlanders. The […]
Ruger's 77/44 Rotary Magazine Carbine Part I
The rotary magazine bolt action Ruger made its debut in the form of the 77/22, chambered for the 22 Long Rifle rimfire cartridge in 1983. The Ruger 77/44 came along in 1997 with a wood stock and blued hardware. A synthetic and stainless version followed in 1999, which is about when […]
Ruger's Easy Shooting GP100 22 Rimfire
As a person who carries a 357 Mag GP100 revolver at work and when out in the surrounding wooded areas, I was glad to see Ruger release this high capacity rimfire version. It provides a small game and pest solution, it makes for fun recreational target shooting and its heft […]

Ruger's SR22 Long Slide 22 LR Rimfire
It is that time of the year again. My wife and I went to the Christmas tree farm down the hill and wandered the rolling hills in search of the perfect tree or until a nap was needed. We finally found what we felt was a beautiful Balsam Fir, full […]
