The thread concerning B/C gap got me thinking about handgun accuracy so I decided to reread some thoughts from one of the masters. Notice his experience with Rugers, even those not built exactly like a fine watch. Kinda reinforced the fact that when my sixgun/load seems to be having an "off day" at range, it's most likely my "trigger operating" that's at fault, not the gun!
:wink:
"I have shot a lot of new Ruger sixguns and generally they will shoot about 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" at 25 yards with good handloads. I have seen a few, I'll throw a wild guess and say 20% of them I have tested, that will shoot under the 1" mark at 25 yards. Very few, less than 10% will group over 2" at 25 yards with a little load work. In reality, this is very good accuracy".
