I have a couple of the Ruger Old Army's.One's stainless and the other is a Ruger Brass framed model.The Brass Frame is unfired. My Stainless shoots well.The OA uses a .457 RB around 30-35 grains of powder.To tell you how often I shoot it. It's been loaded since a special BP hunt I went on back 12 years ago.Been in a safe ever since.I remember the year well. I was a newly soon to be free man again.(divorced) LOL.It still has the original caps. I guarantee all six will fire.The OA's are a very strong gun and quite accurate. Ruger is making them with adjustable or fixed sights.The Ruger's cost a little more but worth the extra cost.
