@Godswarrior101 , Short answer: The Ruger is very similar on the outside, but it's made differently on the inside. It's not meant to be a replica or exact clone of the Colt; it's meant to be more modern in it's strength and design.

Great video, Hickok. My Dad is in law enforcement. As a gift, he gave me his Ruger Security-Six .357 magnum, made in 1975. It was a secondary weapon he had, so he didn't fire it much; it's still basically new. I cleaned it and fired it at the range for the first time this weekend (it was my first time firing a .357 magnum). What a bark!

Load it down w/ 38's for practice and .357's for carry or hunting. Good thing is it'll shoot any load you need, from factory 38/357 to hot rodded 'Ruger Only' handloads for defense or hunting!

In researching for purchase the .357 has out grown the .45 lc because you can load .38 and shoot which is lighter and less expensive. Then kick it up to .357 if needed. Plus many lever rifles are in .357/.38 now so you can have rifle/pistol with one type ammo. Great video's!!

I've had one of the first Ruger Vaqueros in .45 LC since 1994. As Hickok says, it's a tank, but a really great gun. Hardly any recoil due to the heavy weight of the weapon. I had a Colt Peacemaker also, and I always believed the Ruger is twice the gun for half the price.

@glynamus , When you quit getting black or brown lube coming out of it. If you soak the insides with a good BP lube, such as Ballistol, you will find that the residue won't do any damage in the short term, maybe even the long term. When I was shoot more matches, I tried to make sure I broke down my Colts completely at least once a year.

Great revolver. I worked in a gun shop from 1993-95. I remember when the Blackhawk based Vaqueros came out. They were a bit heavy. The new streamlined ones should be ideal. Hard to beat a good 357 for a trail/woods gun too. I imagine it is perhaps a shade lighter than my 4" 686, or would feel lighter due to the balance with the longer barrel. Something else to add to my list, and i have plenty already. Love your videos. Thank you

I have found my favorite target load is a 200 grain round shoulder flat point lead alloy with 7.2 grains of titegroup. gives me about 820 FPS out of a 4 7/8 inch barrel LOVE MY VAQUEROS.

Had a small red insert notched up front and added some stag grips. Are you kidding me? This "ole revolver shoots and looks beautiful. As Hickok mentions more frame beef than the "New" model.

btw, you have excellent videos. many years ago, i had a .45 colt, ruger blackhawk, and, it was deadly. a few months back, i bought a new vaquero, .45 colt, 4.6" barrel, and found i couldn't hit with it. texas grips was only maker, but, those grips would cost me over $200. in canada. so, added a piece of 5/8" urethane to bottom, held on with gorilla tape, then, wrapped the whole grip with golfer's grip tape. much more hand filling, and not slippery, and, can be readily removed. worth a try, if grip is too small and slippery.

Great guns. Very successful. Mine is the old model based on the Blackhawk with the 4-1/2" barrel in .45 Colt. I don't know about thwe trigger and hammer pull weight on the mew style, but mine greatly benefitted from installing Wolff springs. Bought it new in 93. It's been perfect unless I'm not very careful of primer height when reloading. There's almost no space for forgiveness as the cartridges pass thru the frame if you have a primer that's even .005" high. Even after some thousands of cowboy rounds, the clearance between the chamber mouths and the forcing cone remains between .003"-.004" gap. Brutally strong guns.

Leather is custom, high-and-tight crossdraw under a light jacket generally, and radically modified sights like nothing else. I love that gun.

I've had my eye on a 357 Ruger SA for quite a while still torn between Blackhawk convertable (6.5" bar. 357/9mm) or Vaquero (5.5" bar.) As of right now the only SA I have is a really old Single Six (22lr/22wmr) love it. Thanks once again Hickock45 for the great videos.

Yes, The 38 is the same cartridge case just slightly shorter, so it will fit and fire in any revolver chambered for the 357. The other way around ,of course is not feasible since the 38 chamber is to short to allow the 357 to seat completely.

Hickock.... I think you should play the star spangled banner with those pistols on the gongs..... I guess it would be a lot of work setting up the correct sound from each plate.... but it would still be fun and very cool. Thanks buddy... can't wait to see it... :)

The original Voquero was simply a Blackhawk minus the sights. The second generation is designed to the approximate size of the Colt SAA.

@georgewashington92 , You can use either one. Most people would use modern smokeless ammo.

I'm a Hickok45 addict. I'm also a gun-buying addict, and Hickok's videos allow me to live vicariously. Now....what to do with all these Glocks........

@JBSauce: the harder choice is "NewVaq versus Beretta Stampede". The Stampede is basically a high-end Uberti that has a transfer-bar safety grafted on. Size/heft/etc. is very similar to a NewVaq. The Beretta is likely to look better than a NewVaq, at least stock. It's a decent gun, but if you look at what the SASS guys are saying on the SASS Wire forums, the Berettas aren't holding up to high round counts as well as the Ubertis with no safety. Neither is as tough as a Ruger.

A very good video to start a morning read of the paper. I like the historical feel to these guns and my childhood Saturday morning memory of Roy Rogers, Hopalong, and Gene. Of course I am also thinking of the new Rossi Mare's Leg not because it is practical but because of Steve McQueen's show.

@hickok45: and shoot for cheap. There's another advantage: in this class of gun, when you're not shooting in competition you can load some serious stomper 357 ammo, up to about 800ft/lbs energy. The same gun in 45LC tops out at around 500ft/lbs energy, maybe a hair more. The 45 has much thinner cylinder wall chambers with a max pressure of 21k PSI. The same gun in 357 can handle the old-spec 357 loads: 43.5k PSI. Makes the 357 version very flexible.
