I have put a little over 300 rounds through my SR1911 and have not experienced any failures of any kind. It has been torn down every fifty rounds or so to evaluate wear in marks and everything looks good. the gun is put togather very well for its price range. all the critical parts are reasonally tight. and the machining is well done.
my sample will shoot 200 gr. XTPs clocked just under 1000 fps. inside 2-1/2 inches at 25 yards and under 4 inches at 50 yards. that is very good pratical accuracy in my book. 230 ball is almost as good if they are loaded up over 800 fps. it Will Not shoot 230 gr soft target loads. I tried several hand loads and two factory loads. groups were 6-8 inches at 25 yards with low velocity loads. However, it does shoot soft target loads with lighter SWC very nicely.
I think Ruger hit a home run with this one. it has been absolutely reliable, good accuracy, 100 % american made and beautifully finished.
Buds was a little slow getting it out the door but saved the day with express shipping. I recieved the gun in four days. I have purchased more than a few guns from Buds and the service has always been good and the prices are very competitive.
