F4YG, I wonder if others with the Marlin 17' s have had feeding problems with the CCI?Not sure when I' ll ever get to shooting my Savage but I' ll let you know how the CCI fed in my rifle.It can always be used in the Ruger Single Six if it ever gets released,

Ruger Redhawk, I know of another shooter at the club I shoot at that has the same problem. The CCI shoots good as well when it feeds. Let me know when you get the single six. I' d like to get one too, but I' ll let you do the testing first.

F4YG, I asked my dealer about one of those Ruger' s last week. Apparently they haven' t been released yet.You ought to grab one of the Ruger MK4 WBR/NRA Commemoratives. They' re going fast . I managed to pick three of them up. Two are consec numbers.Since you are a NRA Supporter.25.00 from each one sold goes to the NRA Endowment program.Nice little guns.If you want to hear more go to www.ruger-firearms.com click on firearms, then news. It' s in the news section Endownment pistol.
