Jim, you are really hooked but in a good way! That Ruger 45 with 9 grs off Unique & a 250 gr bullet is a classic in that caliber, I've shot ten's of thousands of them & more than a few deer have hated that load.

T O M that is a Ruger that's been converted to a bisley & it's very accurate. My grandson was with me & there were 2 bucks standing together but they were ready to run, Ridge shot one & I shot the other, both were 94 yds & they went down within 10 yds of each other. A great experience to share with a grandson. My bullet exited both lungs.
