Mike,
That is the smart way to go with Cowboy loads or light reloads.

I have a Colt Army Special that has a LOT OF HISTORY. I only use very light Trail Boss loads in it..

It's history started with being used by the Rough Riders and ended up in 'Nam in '66 where I took it from a NVA regular "that did not need it anymore"

Wayne

I also have a stainless one Rocky. "Just one" though. It is unfired and will be TJ's (My Grandson) 1st revolver.
Best, Capt. Chris

O.K....I know...I'm showing off a bit...BUT I do love these little treasures!!!
Ruger does too they are not cheap....size for size, they are probably Ruger's most expensive pistol...
my crappy ass camera doesn't illustrate the beauty to the Tyler work..
Threw in the 21 for scale

Rocky,
WOW!! Super nice!!

I remember when Ruger first came out with the BearCats,the price was if I am not mistaken $49. but that was in '58.

Then they dropped the price to $39 for a while.

Always is a nice camp/trail gun. I have an El Paso Saddlery crossdraw holster for mine.

Wayne
