Thank ya! Wish it talked specifically about the #1s. I saw that load data in Load Data but the text is good. I have a .357 Leverguns I need to load too. |

That sounds right. I believe some were made without the commemorative markings, but not many.
Ed Harris worked at Ruger at the time and was tasked with resolving accuracy issues of warranty returns. I don't know where the article or forum post is, but I seem to remember that the solution was a slight tweak to chamber/throat dimensions. If you run up against something like that, look up Ed/his article on the topic.
