My new Ruger .44 Special
Could not be more delighted. Loaded 250 gr Leadheads Keith style over 7.5 grains of Universal. Shot for the first time this morning.
The high shot was the first.



My thanks to John Taffin and Terry Murbach for their advice.

Very nice Bill. Is that a Ruger catalog revolver or a Lipseys/Davidson special?

It is a special one made to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Shootists; I believe done through Lipseys.
