I picked up this birdshead 45acp a few months at a local gun show. I shot it several times using Winchester white box 45 hardball ammo and it worked great. A couple weeks later I decided to shoot some Federal hardball. When you loaded it up, the cylinder wouldn't turn. I took the cylinder out and put rounds in all the chambers and noticed that 2 of the cartridges didn't seat all the way. They stuck out bout 1/16th of an inch. I believe the cases on the Federal are a little longer than the Winchester. I sent it back to Ruger on their dollar and they kept it almost 6 weeks. Got it back Friday and now it works great. I gotta say they did an excellent job on it. They put a new cylinder in it.
