Ruger Target gun

Post by tx gunrunner » Sat Apr 16, 2016 8:53 am

I build this gun in the 80's and it is still winning matches today . It started out as a 30-40 Krag in #3 Ruger . I did a lot of Gemany target shooting which is Single Shot cast lead bullet shooter and no gas checks or jacket bullets allow either . The 32-40 was king at the time so I built one. I redesigned trigger and shorten the hammer fall and cut lock time down . Now you can buy the parts to do the job . I made and designed the breach loading tools for loading and even made the bullet mold I shot in the matches . The pic tells the story
