I have unfired Ruger Old Army, sitting on the shelf last 5 years. Now, I am retired, and ROA will finally see the range. As for bullets, not interested in round ball, would like to go with bullets similar to those used in standard revolvers. I know a gentleman who makes excellent molds, and worked with him before on some other projects, so I am thinking about Cramer style mold to make both, solid base and hollow base bullets.
Now, in order to design right bullet, I would need some info from knowledgeable members:
- What is the angle of forcing cone on ROA barrel? Is it 5° (included angle) as on standard Ruger revolvers?
- What is chamber dia on ROA cylinder?
Unfortunately, due these corona restrictions, I am grounded in one town, while my ROA and other guns are in another. Thanks for help!
