Yep, I said TOO HIGH. Like in 4 to 6 inches over point of aim using a variety of loads. This is in a 44spl stainless NM flat top. I have tried to load up and it is better at 4" high but the rear sight is bottomed out and can't get the accuracy I want in what should be a good shooting 6 gun. I'm pretty disappointed and had high expectations. I bought this about 2 years ago, worked with it a bit, gave up, pulled it out of the safe a couple of times to try different loads, and the occasional factory ammo, but just can't find something that shoots well in this revolver. The best I can get is about a 2" spread printing high, mostly in a vertical string fairly well centered on the paper at 25 yards. I really don't want to go with a taller front sight, as the factory one is already fairly pronounced. Anyone have the same problem, with this or any other Blackhawk? Will sending it back to Ruger do any good, or am I just stuck with shooting at a 6 o'clock hold from now on? (not my preference for fun shooting). Oh, and I am loading lead cast bullets, from Matt's and a couple other casters I can't think of right now. From 185gr to 315gr, LSWC to flatnose Wadcutters and RNFPs. Powders used most are H110, Unique, Herco, 2400, W231.
