Welcome, spent a year at Mc Guire AFB in 74, don't know if it's considered north or central Jersey. Man that was a lifetime ago. Love the avatar, I was riding a TR6-C back then. Currently on a 900 Street Scrambler, no pics cause this forum is about Rugers...

Better check your states hunting regs first. My state doesn't permit H.P. ammo except for varmints. For the handgun calibers you listed I prefer JSP's or heavy for caliber cast flat points.

46yrs here. Where did the time go ???

Bought a Star P.D. new in 1978. My first .45acp and a fantastic little pistol, never should have sold it. They don't hit the market very often any more, and parts can be a problem.

Kimber Ultra CDP II, it's my winter carry for almost 13 years now.

Welcome from the western side. I'm closer to rugerguy than I am to Scranton.

Another welcome Chief. Spent a memorable year in the Tidewater area early 70's.

I've always liked Mastercast in Enon Valley, Penn. Very good pricing on HARD cast bullets.

Well, any excuse for a new gun will do...

https://www.eabco.net/tandemkross-lci-filler-for-ruger-mk-iii-and-2245-stnls-or-blue-steel.html Hope you can make the link work. I had to Google Fu as I had no idea what a filler was.

I've seen it done years ago but never bothered. I bought a box,( think they were Remington), in the late 70's that were crimped over the nose not even thinking about it. I mainly wanted them for the brass.

Another belated welcome. My older brother resides in Winder.

44 years for me.

Another Keystone welcome.

Are you locking the slide open to the rear with magazine removed ? If you are, it may need to go back to Ruger.
