...about the grips and recoil too -- they work just fine, up until about 325s at 1100+ fps.

When I first saw this gun in the add from Ruger in my inbox, the first thing I thought was this might be a great platform for .45 Win Mag. I wondered how well it would shoot ACP's considering that long jump to the cylinder throats but was really hoping it would be a good vehicle for ACP's. If it doesn't do well with ACP's, I'm half tempted to replace a 4 5/8" Blackhawk convertible I let go once upon a time in a land of stupid decisions instead.

.45 COLT: SHOOTS WELL
.45 WINMAG: ALMOST AS WELL
.460 ROWLAND: BETTER THAN .45ACP.
.45 ACP: PICKY ABOUT AMMO PAST 10 YARDS. SHOOTS GREAT AT 7 YARDS WITH EVERYTHING.
.460 SUPER:KEYHOLES

GRIP HANDLES RECOIL WELL EXCEPT FOR ASHLEY'S 365 HH AT 1250 FPS (7-1/2"BARREL RATING) DOES JUS TUNDER 1100 FROM 4" REDHAWK.

I'll give that a try... (reply)

I've been eyeing those as well but have resisted temptation so far. Buds went out of stock but Kentucky Gun Co still showing them in stock for around $760.

dealer. Davidsons shows them all allocated. It's not like this is a special run for Lipsey's or something...it's just a regular production gun. Very irritating. Still have a bit more money to raise but I'd like to at least have one in layawake.
