Voted the #1 revolver out of all calibers in 2021. Great gun, I’ve used it on my ranch quite often

I got one a few months ago. Before I ever shot it the cylinder got the same kind of wear just turning it because it rubbed the loading gate. I emailed Ruger and they said they'd fix it but I decided it's not worth the trouble for me or them. I luckily got a pretty darn accurate one and it's very fun to shoot! You really can't beat them for the money.

NOW Ruger has "announced" the Super Wrangler. 22LR/22WMR combo, with a 5.5" barrel and adjustable sights. with a $329 list price.

I have a single six Ruger. I like it a lot. Thanks for showing you gun.

Just got this today and shot 250 rounds with my dad. No problems. It took a little bit to get used to the sights but after that it was so much fun

I use a toothpick to pick that buildup off near the forcing cone and out of the crannies on the cylinder. I love my wrangler: I've only had a couple rounds fail to go bang in it.

Every revolver gets a buildup of debris above the forcing cone, and 22 rimfire ammo is fairly dirty. Almost every revolver will have the drag marks around the cylinder, and this one raises the locking bar against the cylinder as soon as you close the loading gate, so it will drag against the cylinder till it locks in place. I've shot pistols in competition for over 50 years, I used to shoot a custom S&W revolver in PPC matches, and in match season would fire 800 to 1,000 rounds a week just in practice, and lead wadcutter bullets are incredibly dirty, so when I wasn't shooting, I was either cleaning my gun or reloading! LOL 😄

Normal wear that shows it is breaking in and seasoning the barrel. Just keep shooting it, It will be Ok. After you have it broken in just put a set of wolf springs in it and you will never get rid of it!

Rugers Customer Service is first rate and impeccable.

Watched another reviewer who had to send his Wrangler back to Ruger for a repair and he said he got it back in one week! That's impressive.

Just bought one and definitely gonna cover it with Ballistol first. Appreciate the video sharing this information.

Thanks for taking the time to keep the rest of us out here informed!!👍👍🙋

I found you can scrape the built up off the inside of the top strap with a thin wide bladed flat headed screw driver. Mine is pretty accurate, for what it is (tho I am not lol). I like that it means I can shoot a single action without paying through the nose for .45 colt or .38 special.

Every single action I’ve ever owned had similar wear marks. Shows it’s being used. Never had a cerakote one though.

I have four Wranglers and all have the same finish wear yours does. I sent my first one back to Ruger and they re-coated it but the wear came back Very quickly so I think that's just one of their quirks. Also quick turn around by the way. I had another with the chambers very roughly machined with proud metal interfering with cylinder rotation. Ruger sent me a new cylinder within a few days. All four of mine are picky about ammo and will tumble bullets with some brands. Accuracy is just 'so-so'..good enough for Cowboy action shooting. Lastly, 3 of the four have very stiff loading gates that have not improved over time and thousands of rounds. They are ok for what they are not great. Just ok.

The best gun I have found. I have. 6 Ruger wheel guns, 2 44 mags 1 357 mag.3 22cal.

Nice revolver John and 600 rd report👍🏻

Mine looks about the same as far as wear at about 6000 rounds..never got any worse

My Wrangler out of the box wouldn’t allow the cylinder to rotate when loaded. Contacted CS, gun was back in about two weeks repaired and no problems.

I bought one a couple of years ago, it's haven't had it out yet,

Very nice pistol, a revolver and a lever action are next on my list. 👍I love my Ruger pistol and Rifle 👊😎🇺🇸

I'll probably get one to match my bronze cerekote gp100 ruger did up for me

Have had mine for about a year shoot just like you 7 YRD. much tighter group only complaint loading gate so tight wears on thumb oiled sat watching tv opening closing just to wear it in tight sent back to factory same tight loading gate good shooter

Damn fine little gun. RUGER always has made quality its no.1 priority and these guns prove it .Getting a 7.5 inch model soon and cant wait to hit the range.

Good review. I need to get a pair of them.

Very nice revolver. I've had an original GP100 in stainless steel with a 4-inch carry Barrel since 1990 when they first came out. I am a huge Ruger fan when it comes to wheel guns. Thank you very much for sharing. The black soot that you're getting around the cylinder cartridge holes can be a direct result from using low pressure 22 ammunition and it not expanding the case enough to keep that sort from crawling back around the cartridge and getting the cylinder face where you loaded nasty. Try using CCI Mini Mags and that should cut back on that problem quite a bit. The cylinder where that you're getting from its spinning on the lower locking lug is absolutely normal with all revolvers. Echo

Mine has worn back near the fireing pin area as well and shoots as good or better than your target. I too contacted Ruger and they said they could recoat it for free but I figured it will just wear again so I decided to just keep shooting it. As long as the metal isn't wearing then I am fine, the cerakote is even coming off my muzzle but that could be my cleaning rod doing it. I have now a otis cleaning kit in case it was the rod.

Just bought my wife one waiting on the permit to go pick it up she loves shooting 22 pistols

Good video thanks for posting! As for your lead-ing around the forcing cone; are you by chance shooting any Remington Thunderbolts? If so I highly recommend not using Thunderbolts in ANY revolver. They have a long history of heavily lead-ing firearms, especially revolvers. Myself I just gave in and ordered a Ruger Wrangler (Talo Edition), with a 3.75" barrel, birdseed wooded grips and holster for "under" $300. Which is a great price with the wood grips and holster. It will maker a nice plinking edition to my collection.

If the factory said they would fix the problem and return it in like new condition then you should have sent it back. I've owned more Rugers than I can count and I've only had to send one back. The factory quickly corrected the problem and returned the gun within a week. Take advantage of their offer while you still can.

first three chords to Tangerine by Led Zeppelin opening. Nice!

great service, and cosmetics are not a huge deal, kinda depends on the gun, as my guns get used and shot alot

I don't love cerakote. It's a medium grade paint marketed as top of the top. If car manufacturers does not use it for some reason may it be. I painted my guns with Glasurit and Sikkens, they last forever. Wanna try using Dupont. Any of this paints are more expensive than cerakote. Thanks for your video!

Good vídeo! I m thinking in buy one

Funny I was just sitting here with my 12 string guitar playing Tangerine when this video came on. What are the chances of that? :)

I see a small void/crack or whatever on the outside of the cylinder that you put the mark next to. As I was typing I had to backpeddle and see if that was the mark you made or not. Am I wrong? Sure looks like it on the video. right towards the outside edge of the right side chamber that you put your mark on.

I love this revolver but my front grip frame screw had came loose and lost, But it still work. Contacted ruger and waiting for the answer.

I traded off my Wrangler for another Rough Rider. Hitting bullseyes is fun.

My question, is the cylinder painted or is it suppose to be blued? Reason for that question is on my Ruger Wrangler the front or maybe the face of the cylinder the finish is pretty much all gone only after 200 rds. Its down to bare metal. Out in the field while shooting it I thought it was just a build up of powder until I got it home and cleaned it and realized hey the finish is gone. That build up around where the barrel mates to the frame on mine was a bear to remove and I've still not got it all removed. It looks as if the build up welded it's self to the frame, super hard to remove even with a nylon brush. I've been around guns along time and never experienced anything like that. I have already had to send my Wrangler back to Ruger when I first got it for them to replace the hammer. The hammer on mine was slightly bent to the left to the point it was starting to gouge into the left side of frame right across from the firing pin. Ruger fixed it and they had the gun for about 3 weeks fixing that problem. It kinda blows my mind that now the cylinder face finish is about 80--90% gone after only 200 rds shooting the Wrangler that I have. Believe I'll give Ruger another call soon.

Does yours have a rattle sound when you shake it a bit? My dads doesn’t rattle at all and mine has a distinct rattle to it. It bugs me because I just purchased the pistol.

At least you didn't pay $700 for it.

I find it hard to believe really. No disrespect intended but I baught 2 and both I have been having serious issues with them both. They either skip cylinders or the cylinders pins would pop out after every shot. I baught them both brand new in a box. They had less than 1000 rnds in it

Mine iss a month old now. After shooting several brands of ammo I experienced the cylinder binding. This was only with Remington and only some out of the same box. I attribute this to ammo inconsistent case. Is this how yours go the worn spot? Now when I load I rotate the cylinder a full rotation to assure it doesn't drag. Do you have any input on that. Like I said with other ammo it shoots perfectly. THANKS.

All revolvers get build up around the forcing cone area

.22s are just nasty by nature ya shoot em yer gonna have to clean em

Did I hear Led Zeppellin, "Tangerine?"

Need to put some wood grips on that bad boi

On mine the base pin latch unscrewed itself and the spring got lost. On the Ruger website I don't see where to order parts, what do you suggest? Thank you in advance for your help

Throat on mine is way to big. Keyholes and leads badly.

Thats called bolt drag and could/should be adressed.

No offence, but that 7yard target🙈 I can shoot a stingshot more accurately than that... Maybe I'm just spoiled with my Browning Medallist .22lr. I would be pissed off if that was a 50yard target with the Browning.

these are not very accurate guns. mine shoots 3 inches to the left at 7 yds. off a rest

Wear on a $200 gun? Really? 🤣🤣🤣

LOOKS GOOD...FEELS GOOD...DOESN'T SHOOT WORTH A DAMN....! Don't know why Ruger would put out a gun that doesn't group at all...it's just a piece of junk...waste of money...!
