    First Custom Rifle Project: What do I need to think about?

    I'm pretty sure I'm going to send my Ruger Hawkeye (stainless with laminate stock) to Hart Barrels (because they have a good rep and are in driving distance) to be rebarreled. I'm going to keep it chambered in .300WM. My reason for rebarreling is that I want a rifle that is easier to develop...

    Ruger 77/44 suppressed thumper project

    Finally finished! I've been mulling over the idea of a big bore carbine for suppressed shooting with heavy subs for a few years. The main idea was to put together a quiet package for plinking fun and short range deer hunting out to ~75 yds. I looked a range of options including RARs in .450...

    Ruger Blackhawk vs Vaquero frame strength

    Greetings everyone, I'm looking into purchasing a Ruger single action revolver, and cannot decide which one to purchase. Is there any difference in the frame strength of the current production new Blackhawks or Vaqueros? I’ve heard that the Blackhawks may be able to handle higher pressure loads...

    Purchasing new revolver

    Greetings! I’m looking into purchasing a small traditional single action revolver, I’d like to buy something that could be handed down someday. Right now I’m looking at some of the offerings from ruger, either a new bearcat in .22, or the vaquero in .357 mag (I’d shoot .38 special out of it)...

    Will Ruger fix my revolver?

    I sent Ruger a email a few days ago but they still haven't gotten back with me which makes me wonder if they're ever going to respond (I know it takes three business days but its' been more than that) My Ruger Vaquero broke last week, I was cocking then then the hammer wouldn't go all the way...

    Red Dot for a 10/22 Take Down

    I just ordered a Mag-Pul X-22 Backpacker stock for my Ruger 10/22 TD, along with the matching Optic Mount. Now, I need to pick up a small, light weight, red dot sight to use. I don't necessarily want the cheapest sight I can find, but on the other hand I don't really want to spend $600 for a...

    Ruger 338LM RPR - First Impressions

    I recently acquired a new Ruger RPR chambered in 338LM. I've shot multiple RPR's and personally own two of them: one 6.5 Creedmoor and now 338LM. They're not without fault, but overall I tend to like them and definitely enjoy shooting the RPR. Here's my 2 cents: Chassis: The RPR chassis...

    Ruger Wrangler ($176.00) vs. Ruger 5435 LCRx ($470.00)

    With the release of their low-priced Wrangler, Ruger gave some interesting insight into their production and sales costs, and what must be absurdly high margins on some of their products with comparable raw material/processing/labor costs. That's OK, it'll take a bit more time and a bit more...

    Ruger Wrangler .22lr Review (lots of pictures)

    Just wanted to give an initial impression review on my recently acquired Ruger Wrangler in .22lr. As most of you may know Ruger just put out what many are considering direct competition to the Heritage line of .22lr SA revolvers. Before Ruger came out with the Wrangler I was about to purchase...

    Ruger tricked me!

    I've liked the idea of the PC Carbine since they came out, but was holding out for a .40 or .45. Finally, when SHOT passed this year with no mention of new models, I bought a 9mm and was happy with it.... until today, when Ruger announced 6 new models including 3 chambered in .40...

    6.5 creedmoor?

    Bergara b14 hmr vs Ruger Hawkeye long range target model. I was wondering if anyone had experience with both? I was trying to decide between the 2. I liked that ruger has a 26 inch barrel with 5r rifling and I see the hmr has a 24 inch option. Both stocks look similar but I noticed the hmr says...

    RUGER SR22 with 3.5" or 4.5" barrel choice?

    I sold my SR22 plinker a year ago and wished I didn't ever since. I always said I would replace it sometime when I found them on sale, but I might want the 4.5" model. The longer barrel models are $400+ when you can find them. I liked the balance of the standard model. I just figured the...

    Ruger SR9c question

    A decade after selling my sr9c, I'm feeling the nostalgic itch to get it back. There is one at a very good price at the local shop...but there is something a little funky about the mainspring rod. When it is racked into battery, it sticks out a bit, and needs to be pushed back into place...

    Question about using a Ruger 10mm

    I don't hunt much anymore so I am trying to educate myself on a few things. We have bear here in western NC, they have gotten in my truck,etc. They are not a real problem but I want to continue to hike in the woods so I'm considering carrying a 10mm. I was thinking of a Ruger revolver in 10mm...

    Ruger Impact .22

    I buy a lot of air guns from local pawn shops. Taking them home, I often find out why they were sold. The Ruger Impact .22 I tested tonight is a very pleasant exception. 25 shots at 25' seated, elbows supported, and not a single flyer. From Ruger's web site: Ruger® Impact The Ruger® Impact air...

    Buckmark, Victory or Ruger MK IV for a 22lr?

    which should I get? I want a reliable, accurate pistol for 22lr to plink and train my daughters to shoot with. Would probably like adjustable sights but not too worried about them. Would like the option to put a red dot on since I have an extra one laying around. Not too worried about adding...

    IWB Holster for LC9s with CT Laser.

    I recently added a CrimsonTrace laser to my Ruger LC9s pistol and now I'm looking for holster recommendations. I found one sturdy kydex IWB holster made by a company named B&B Holsters, but after wearing it for a couple days I realised it was pressing on the mag release after I found the mag...

    A few years back powder choices were limited. Of recent the available selection has greatly improved. I use to make my choice based on what was available more so than what would be best for the give application. Now that I have more choices I'm looking to improve my selection based on the...

    Looking for New Target 1911

    I've managed to avoid the siren call of the 1911 for most of my life. For carry and home defense weapons, I've been more than satisfied with my polymer pistols. Recently, though, I had the chance to shoot a friends 1911, and I was really impressed. The gun seemed to almost aim itself and it...
