Thanks for the heads up Steve b. The HKS speedloaders worked no problem with the Hogue grip. Good info for others that may wonder about it.

Well I got to the range to shoot the new SP101 .357 w/3" barrel and Hogue grip. Started out with .38 special +P Remington which was a bit snappy but felt good to shoot and not to much to handle. Then we shot .357 124 grain JSP from Remington. This has a bigger kick then the .38 +P. The...

I tell you I really like the SP101 in a longer barrel. I've got the 3". I just looks more proportional and with those wood grips it looks sweet! Enjoy them.

I like the wood grips too. I was wondering if they reduce the recoil any. Thank you for the info.

Thanks for all the input guys. I will try both grips to see which feels best but the stock grip feels a little small in my hands. I have heard alot of people change the grips due to the recoil with hot .357 rounds and I have never filed .357 before sooooo I will have to try them both.

Thanks jazzman and jimbo. I will post some pics once I get the hogue grip on. Can't wait to fire it. The stock grip feels a little small in my hand so that plus the recoil factor is why I am replacing it.

Just got my Ruger SP101 .357 w/3" barrel today at a gun show for $425. Also picked up a Hogue Monogrip to change out but may also consider another brand grip as well. Here is a pic.

Yes, thats the problem. I don't mind the laser and the grips feel nice but they kick up the price another $200 or so.

No luck at the gun show today. I only saw 1 SP101 .357 w/3" barrel but it had CT grips for $649. I don't want the CT grips so I asked if they would sell it without them but they would not. I was offered a good deal on a Micro Desert Eagle .380 brand new out the door for $431 but I had my...

Thanks for the replies everyone. Yeah, like to have ammo on hand and defintely have my eye out for a nice SP101.

When I went to Walmart today I was so surprised to see a bunch of .357, .38 SP+P, JHP's etc I bought a few boxes. The only problem is I don't own a .357 yet. Since tomorrow is the S. Florida gun show I will be on the lookout for a new Ruger SP101 .357 w/3" barrel. Wish me luck.

I just ran 50 rounds of this ammo through my Walther PPS 9mm yesterday with no problems. It's great for $9.47 a box at Walmart.

I'm so mad I went to Walmart today and that ammo came in yesterday. Just missed them! Dang.

I'm looking for the same as you. I like the 3" barrel as well but they are very hard to come by for some reason. Anyone know why?

Nice gun. I'm in the market for this exact one as well.
