Well, after selling my custom SP101 3" a few years ago, I am once again in the wheel-gun game. I was gifted a beautiful GP100 (Talo unfluted cylinder edition) in .357 magnum over the holiday and have to say that I absolutely LOVE the way this wheel-gun shoots. After receiving this lovely pistol I proceeded to doing the obligatory IBOK trigger job, which included spring changes, hammer shims and knowing exactly where to stone the action to give it a wonderful sub 2lb SA and 6lb DA trigger pull.
If you have never shot a custom-trigger Ruger wheel-gun in DA mode, you are really missing something special. The generous ledge at the end of the trigger pull allows for the easiest trigger-staging of any revolver that I have ever shot... I find DA to be more accurate and predictable than SA by a county mile.
