What is your favorite Ruger to shoot?

Many of us have guns that we do not shoot in our collections but lets hear about the ones you like to shoot. It might be a handgun, rifle, or even a shotgun that really is just plain fun to shoot and why. It might be really accurate or what ever makes it a joy to shoot. Just think of what would happen if we would start seeing displays of just a gun or two that they like to shot and get to tell others about it and why! Just think who does not like to talk RUGER!

Probably my MK III Target is my most 'fun' gun. I really do not have a favorite as such. Seems the one I am, at that time, turning gunpowder into noise is the one I 'favor'.

A Mark I, T514 that had a bit too many blemishes for the collection so I kept it for a shooter. It lives in a reproduction M7 shoulder rig and goes everywhere I do on the farm. Accurate and balanced - handles like an extension of your arm.

A Max, of course, but partial to my Hawkeye and a #1 in 9.3 x 74R. But, there agin, nothing beats puttin' 100+ rounds through a Garand. Coogs.

I am partial to a 10/22 International that I put together out of pieces. Picked up the stock online with a stainless muzzle cap. Took an older K10/22 action & put a newer K10/22 barrel on it to fit the stock. Also put a BX Trigger in it. The rifle fits perfectly & is accurate. It's a shooter for sure. I could swap the pieces back into the original rifles but this seems to be the right combination so am keeping it as is.

When at home, I guess I'm partial to my single six. I can sit on the deck and plink at spinner targets. Why I like this better than the MKII is because I don't have to pick up brass when I'm done. I also like shooting my Red Labels when at the clay range. Both activities can burn up lots of ammo, thankfully, I can always get more.

My favorite fun gun(s) would have to be my MarkII equiped with a surpressor, and my 10/22 with a 30 round mag. That combo will burn up the ammo in a hurry!! :D

My favorite Rifle is my No.1 in 218 Bee it has dropped a lot of animals. Next is my Mark II Slade Side that is a lot of fun shooting Ground Squirrels!

I had a #1 in 218 and one in 22 hornet, both are gone but they stung a few woodchucks now I most enjoy my 1s in 45/70 and I do like my American in 300 bo.

I enjoy shooting all my Ruger .22s. However, right now, my favorite would have to be my stainless .357 Black Hawk with the 4.62" barrel. Great balance and easy to shoot for someone like me with small hands.
