I'm picking up a lightly gone over 3" Speed Six for concealed carry and home defense. This is my first Ruger Speed Six and I want to replace the Pachmayr rubber grips with good wood grips. With all of my S&W DA revolvers I go to Craig Spegel, but checking his website today I see no reference...

Years ago I had two matching Vaqueros I used for Cowboy Action. Both shot left about 4" at 25 yards. Sent guns along with the corresponding targets to Ruger. They adjusted both to shoot with perfect windage and sent them back in very short order.

I'll take it. Email sent. Keith

Hawkeye, Thanks for the link. It answers ALL of my questions and then some. There is NO need for anyone else to answer my original question. Keith

Who here is familiar with Gary Reeder custom Rugers? How does his work compare to others in the business? Thanks. Keith

I've sent you a PM regarding gun. Keith

Got it back from the factory on 21 July after being repaired. They did a very good job and in a short period of time. It still doesn't look quite as nice as other examples I've owned but all in all, quite acceptable. Keith

As planned I shipped the 480 to Ruger in NH for repair on 10 July. They paid for shipping. I was just notified today that the gun is on its way back. Should have it by Friday at the latest. I also just took delivery of a Lipsey Bisley Blackhawk Flattop in 44 Special. As expected the fit and...

Just got mine...a John Linebaugh custom Bisley in 500 Linebaugh. Now I can die a happy man. Keith

Just took delivery of my new Super Blackhawk Bisley in 480 Ruger. Everything was pretty sorted out except for the frame/receiver alignment. The grip frame was out of alignment by .005" (using a feeler guage). On the rear right side the grip frame was proud to the receiver by .005" and on the...

Over the years I've been dealing with John Linebaugh quite a bit and now fully buy into his philosophy that super heavy bullets at high velocity with massive recoil is just not useful, practical or necessary. Over the years he has backed off the velocity to the point that he now shoots, almost...

I've researched a bunch of articles online about the accuracy of the Ruger Super Blackhawk Bisley in 480 Ruger. Now I'm looking for FIRST HAND experience from forum members about whether these accounts are true. Those of you that either own/use this particular gun or have tried it more than...
