I went to The gun shop today to look at several Ruger revolvers. I have been considering a New Vaquero for some time.
I looked at 5 of them and took home the pick of the litter. A 5.5 inch, blued, and chambered in 45 Colt. Bought this one so I could send 280 Swc and 250 gr XTP's down range with a little more oomph, lol.
This one has a nice finish, decent grip fit, great barrel cylinder gap, a good forcing cone, and a decent trigger pull.
The only thing I don't like is the grip profile. I will put a thicker set of grips on. Range report to follow this week.
The hardest part was not buying the red hawk (older) chambered for 45 Colt, lol.
