Mine was a jt as well, sbh grips fit wonderfully, I absolutely loved them

I'm having trouble getting SBH grips to fit mine properly. Care to elaborate on what you're using

This may be a dumb question but will the 45COLT/410 chambering handle "Ruger only" 45colt loads?

I'm sure it would assuming it uses the same cylinder blank as the heavy hitters.

Githerboosted:

I have had multiple folks tell me that they may fight the "D" but do not fit the "JT". I had no idea that they did. I saw on castboolits where a guy posted a picture of them on his "JT" and they appeared fine in the image but when he asked he also stated that he had to tighten then every few rounds and that the fit was not quite acceptable.

But that's just from reading posts, you have first hand knowledge.

Good on you! I'll hold what I got, right now

Appreciate the post.

That 700 grain bullet is a sledgehammer. I bet it would be great on hogs, elk, bears, and moose.

Whitmore/MaxP has typed that it is more of a novelty. I see the 500-525 grain bullet at proper velocity for shape, alloy, etc. espoused by some as a better' pernetrator'. I have no idea. He has a book that was just recently released. I haven't read to see if his opinion has changed.

For me, I have to give them a look

I may spring for a mold.

Addenda: I'll post more in six weeks or so, maybe. So long, for now.

Mines is a JT prefix and the hogue SBH monogrip is the best fit I've found thus far. But even then the backstrap is raised outside the grip by about a 1/16"th.
