From a guy who owns both. If you want pretty buy S&W. If you want a better designed workhorse buy Ruger.
I only buy and shoot Ruger now-a-days...

Can't tell you how to calculate it on the install spring, so just buy a new OEM or better to replace it.

Putting a drain hole in an elk is going to kill it most of the time. It's WHEN and WHERE... :D

That's a very nice gun for its day. My Ruger Super Redhawk will shoot the X-ring out at that range all day long. Thanks for sharing it.

What is the "Skeeter Skelton" load?

HS-6 and Longshot here.

Cast bullets are fun, but when it gets a little more serious go to a bullet made for hunting that is why we have them now-a-days. A Nosler AccuBond or Partition will work very well...

The Bisley grip will fit your hand more like a DA revolver grip does but without the nub at the top used during fast double-action so the hand doesn't slip up into the hammer bite area.

I recommend a Ruger Redhawk 5.5" or Super Redhawk 7.5" :D

But it does cost some money to get quality and precision.

I don't use it. It's as bright as a atomic bomb and they say "it's not hotter"?

I use HS-6 and it meters very well.

LGS had 8 pounds of Varget and it came home with me! :D

Thanks for all the welcomes! I live in the Everett area and travel to Eastern WA and Idaho also to shoot.

Mostly into handguns, but enjoy my rifles and shotguns too. Been doing this since the '70s...
