BRC Ruger Cylinders Update

Al Story, owner of BRC, will be offering Ruger cylinders and barrels in 38-40 for Ruger pistols in the coming months. The demand for Ruger center fire cylinders has been so great there is a 3 month backlog.  No new orders for center fire cylinders will be taken until September 1, 2021.

I had the opportunity to do some testing of my Ruger Vaquero with a new BRC 45 ACP cylinder.  Fortunately for me Al had a number of orders for the 45 ACP cylinders.  When I stopped by the shop to pick up the pistol with 45 ACP cylinder Al asked for my testing feedback.

My testing was rather simple.  I set a can at 25 yards and shot 6 rounds at it.  Here you will see a photo with my Ruger 41 Mag and Ruger Vaquero with 45 LC and 45 ACP cylinders along with said can and my barrel testing results.  My first shot at the can seemed a bit low so I gave a little more front sight.  With fixed sights I was surprised at the results.  A few days later, while pumping water at the south end of our place,  I placed rocks at 25 and 50 yards toward the base of a hill.  The Vaquero 45 ACP held true and had no trouble finding the mark out to 100 yards without using Kentucky windage, a true test of quality Ruger barrels and BRC cylinder alignment.  My 45 ACP load used was my custom 1911 load. I use my RCBS 201 KT mold for cast bullets and 7.4 gr of #5 powder bullet overall length of 1.205".

I will suggest to Al that he also offer barrels for the large frame Ruger pistols in 45 cal. with hopes of a 4 1/2" barrel for my Vaquero, much like my Ruger 41 mag. pistol pictured.  As an off hand rifle competitor, I have found having quality in your rifle and pistol is a must for accuracy much like the quality one sees in BRC and Ruger products.   — Ken Lewis
