My new FA97 in 357 Magnum. These guns are second only to my Trail Guns on my favorites list. Reading JT's writings about them has prompted me to scope mine in 327 Federal/32-20 and 357 Magnum/9mm. Both wear the Weaver 2x scopes.

Second one was the new Ruger/Lipseys 32 Magum Bisley. One of the best fitted factory guns I've seen in a while. A B-Square Scope Base and Simmons 2x went on this one.

Hope to do some serious small game hunting with these three guns soon.

Huey, didnyou have to drill and tap

The Ruger?

No... The B-Square mount is barrel length specific...

Its a full length rib. You remove both sights and the rib is secured by two screws. It was a very good product. I have some hoarded back and buy them when I find them.

I took a Burris base for a M83 FA

And milled/filed away the front part that fits down into the mortise top of the frame after removing the front sight. Bob Baker caught it at the Y-O and he said "hey where did you get that..?" LOL I made it! Used two screws rather than 3.

Picture - Not mine but shows details...

I guess you had to use the FA mont on the 97?

Think that would be a fine hunting revolver.

I agree, stick to normal load spec. Perfect!
