This was my first on-line gun purchase and it was quite positive. I ordered it the evening of July 15, it shipped on the 21, arrived at my dealer on the 23 and I picked it up on the 24. I definitely anticipate ordering through Bud's in the future.

I am very pleased with the gun. Of course, it's a Ruger revolver, so that's expected. I love the ergonomics of the single action and the dependability and durability of the Ruger. I got her home and put 25 rounds through her. Gold Dots shot exactly to point of aim at 10 yards. I like a certain amount of recoil in single action revolvers because it puts the gun in position to be cocked as it's brought back down onto the target. I'd fired Gold Dots out of a Rossi 720 and found them to be mild in recoil, so I was slightly worried they would roll the Blackhawk up like I prefer but they were perfect. They had just the right amount of recoil. I put some handloads through her, 240 JHP at about 1100 fps. The gun rolled up nice and smooth under the recoil. The trigger guard rapped the knuckle of my middle finger. I mostly just wanted to see what the stouter loads would be like. I mostly plan on putting loads equal to the Gold Dots through her. Those performed perfectly. Love this gun and highly recommend.
