Your thoughts on Ruger Bearcat to be shot a lot

Hi -

I know I can count on y'all to tell me to buy it ; )

I've noticed some quality improvement over the years with CNC machining and the like.

This Bearcat will be shot a lot. I've got 4 kids, grandchild on the way, and always have 22 ammo on hand. So no collector piece is in the running. Accuracy and reliability being the top concerns. I can work on them but preffer shooting.

So I find myself mildly torn between the old and new models. The new ones sure are nice. I can see myself sending it right back to get a cylinder fitted and reeming the factory cyl.

I'm really enjoying the Ruger flat top convertible you folks talked me into ; )

Thanks,
Mike
