Yup awesome red case. Strange 50 yr sticker thingy on the front. Gun was made in July 2006 if I remember. This guys going to be shot frequently so I hope it keeps up

Couldn't have happened cause there's no pics. Ruger Blackhawks are good looking guns. I like shooting Lee's 200 gr. rf over H110 for a pleasant shooting experience.

Check that.After checking my log book I decided not to use H110 due to concerns of a see using light charge with light boolit. I opted for 4.7 gr. Win. 231 instead.

You obviously have fine taste in handguns :smile:. I don't have that one but I do have the 50th .357 edition. A fine shooting handgun. You'll get many happy range sessions with it.

Yeah I have a biesly 44 mag which I will admit I haven't shot yet....my big problem I will say is durring the summer I have my shooting guns lined in for my target practice loads which I shoot about 50-150-200 times each due to the fact I have to drive 3 hrs to shoot. Problem is by time hunting season comes around and I get the urge to take something out hunting it's sighted in for target practice. Some would say "sight your guns in for hunting and you should be practicing for hunting" and which I could not honestly disagree. Police train with duty rounds right? But I enjoy my 8 hrs of shooting where I get to blow off lots of rounds and I get personally anxiety when I have my gun perfectly lined in for target rounds to mess that setting up and sight it in for something else.

i bought this gun to be my target practice 44 mag hehehe and the biesly to be my full time hunting gun. I hope that makes sense but that's my logic and man I can't get over this 50th aniversery gun. It's so slick and awesome.

i got a 357 6.5 inch the other month man.....that gun too I'm so impressed with it's slickness and I got a darn good deal for it. 400 w case and pacmyer presentation grips which feel amazing.
