I think you've hit the proverbial nail on the head.
Rugers are keepers.

There has to be one bad apple in every good barrel of Alaskans.The amazing part with snubbies has always been how accurate they can be with just enough barrel to give a bullet a nudge in the spin cycle.2or3",s isnt much spin but I have often seen a snubby shoot good at 25yds and further. sam.

Isn't 7 yards about what you want out of a snubby? I think I would be happy with that group, but I guess ol' Billy will have to tweek it a little.....see if he can make it better.....good shootin' Billy and I like your stile.

yes ,
i put some lighter 8 lb. wolff springs in it.
factory springs are FIFTEEN POUNDS!
and i gently polished the bearing surfaces with 2000 grit sandpaper.
that stuff is so fine that it feels like paper.

Weasel is a very good name, Billy. They are crafty, high strung, little survivors. You should be proud to be compaired to such.
