    Ruger SA’s are built like a brick s**house. Need very little work, if any, to make them competition ready.

    All I did for mine was replace springs, and open cones and gaps to match each other. Voila…..

    Taylor’s Smoke Wagon Deluxe, in sequentialized pairs, would be cheaper by a couple hundred. Will be interesting to see if there is any competitive markdowns. Competition is good :-)

    Curious: why .357 Magnum and not .45 LC? Does SASS have a bias in favor of .357 Magnum?

    Because .38 special ammo is cheaper i would assume.
