"I just don't equate Ruger and precision accuracy in the same phrase. At least I didn't in the past."
Well maybe you didn't mean the pretense but it could be taken that way. I don't know.
It still is interesting. Although I don't know what it has to do with information that would pertain to the majority that owns "stock" Rugers.
I am still interested in the results.
Oh yes, why the muzzle brake since it isn't like you are fighting horrendous recoil?
The 357 is really quite a pip squeak in the recoil department in that gun.
