As the title says, I recently received a very special Ruger Shopkeeper from Tyler Gun Works. She’s been converted to .22 Magnum, along with an action job and a re-crowned barrel. The stainless trigger and hammer have been case hardened with beautiful colors. To top it off, the stocks are Wooly Mammoth ivory. As good as they look in the photos, they are twice as pretty in person. I can’t tell you how proud I am of this little gun.
I was able to sight in with a couple different loads. The most accurate I found was the CCI 30 gr. V-Max. The other load she liked was the old Winchester 40 gr. jacketed hollow point. There’s actually a little recoil with these two, and the fireball from the V-max load is amazing to see. Even in the middle of the day, it is visible. It’s definitely something you want to wear hearing protection around. The action job is just perfect. Almost no take-up, no creep and it breaks with a gentle squeeze. To round out this perfect packin’ pistol, I carry it in a perfect little Barranti cross draw holster. On the eastern plains of Colorado, this little companion will handle anything I might run across on my early evening walks through the pastures.
I know I’ve said this before, but I think Bobby Tyler is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Both he and his wife, Paige go out of their way to answer questions and provide the highest quality services. I just can’t say enough about these two wonderful people and their company.
