As I stated on another thread here, my brother just bought a 7 1/2" polished SS Vaquero in .45 Colt. We were out shooting it several weekends ago and it's a real shooter. Well balanced, handles nicely, and best of all the good quality of the Ruger bore/rifling/forcing cone keeps the lead buildup way down. The barrel hardly had any evidence of leading after firing 150 lead rounds through it.
I'd sure love to get one for myself but I all ready have that caliber in another brand and currently I am looking for a used (or new if I Could find one) Taurus Tracker SS 4" barrel 5 shot .45 Colt double action revolver. If I can't find that one then next is a Ruger SP101 .357 2 or 3" barrel. So the Vaquero has to get in line after the other two before I can even think about getting one.
