I recently acquired this on Gun Broker, I dont know who did all the work on it but the hammer and trigger are like butter. Thats twelve rounds on a three inch target at 50yrd's, off the bench of course. I'm in love with Blackhawks all over again.

I looked hard at that one. Really like the configuration, realizing the limitations implied with that barrel length and the front scope ring cut out.
Great shooting on your part!

Very nice. How does the grip feel? It looks great.

Iād like to see Ruger do that same basic thing in a 5.5ā Hunter for 44 and 45.

I'd love to see Ruger bring back the 45 Colt Hunter.
You have a great gun and good shooting too...

I have that Ruger Bisley Hunter 7.5" in 45 Colt and I can easily say it's one of my favorites. I put a Leupold on it and it is as accurate as you can get a factory gun (under an inch at 25 yards). With 100 yard steel gongs; they sing, and sing, and sing.
It feels great in the hand and its fit and finish are up to old world standards.
I strongly suggest you pick one up if you ever get the chance.

Even a Redhawk 5.5ā hunter would be nice

Very nice. How does the grip feel? It looks great. Fits my hand perfect, not too fat and not to slim. The grips are made of micarta, you would think they would be a bit slick in your hand but they're not.

Looks like you scored a real winner! Congrats.

Longhunter, you should consider doing us all a favor and clicking the "tell the CEO" button at Ruger's website and sending him a pic of your 45. Maybe he would make it happen for us.

The grips remind me of Reeders along with his round butt conversion. They do look very inviting. Nice gun, great shooting.
