Due to several years of reading s4s4u's posts about how accurate and much he loved his GeePee, I broke down and got one....Gotta blame it on someone

I got it about a month ago, but haven't had time to post a review till now. I picked it up one day and headed staight to my shop with it. I topped it off with a Weigand mount, SSK rings and a 2x Nikon I had laying around. After a quick and easy breakdown of the trigger group, I preformed what, I think, to be the easiest trigger job ever. A total of 30 mins and this thing had a trigger that made all my other revolvers blush. No springs were altered or changed, just some honing and polishing.

After the trigger work, I loaded it with some rounds I had waiting for its arrival. One was a 158gr XTP and and the other was a 180gr NP. Both were loaded with a max dose of H110 (Ruger loads). After a quick shooting session, the GP proved to be very accurate; I was suprised with the results. At 25 and 50 yards, the 158 XTP proved to be the most accurate, but that's not saying the 180NP wasn't. (I appoligize for no photo's of targets) At 25 yards, the 158XTP's turn out one ragged hole and wasn't much different at 50 yards. The 180NP's shot a 1 1/4" group at 50 yards. The 180's are the chosen load for deer this coming season. I'm looking forward to drawing some blood with the GeePee.

By the way, this is the only double action that currently resides in my safe and it's the first one I've owned in 15 years. The last one was a 44 SRH. It's main purpose is to get my wife involved in handgun hunting and I think it's just the ticket for her to start with (she shoots it purdy gud, too). We'll see who bloods it first

Told ya so ;-)

I see you are getting good results with the GP. I picked one up at the end of March this year with a big green fiber optic front sight and cannot use it well. I use a level hold front and rear sight picture and it cuts the bottom of the big green dot off on the bottom causing my groups to vary in size. I think I am trying to see the whole front dot and going back and forth trying to level the top of the sight and seeing the whole green dot. I just got a new front sight, a ramp sight with the red insert. I am going out today to try it. Hopefully that will solve my problem.[mostly mental I guess] My GP will not shoot 158 swc with any accuracy, but when I get to the keith style 170 gr. it starts shooting well. I am also using an LBT-WFN 180 gr. with good results and a max charge of H110 which will probably be my hunting load. Just like you I usually don't buy double actions but I am determined to make this one work. Good luck hunting!!!!

KRal has a double action in the safe!

Great looking gun Kim. I love my GP100 also. Now you need a S&W (or two)

To quote my favorite movie character, Doc Holliday; "My hypocrisy only goes so far".

I NEED a GP-100

Nice revolver!

That is a nice looking gun! I have a 4" GP and want a 6" as well.

Good looking gun. Makes me want to try one.

sweet rig. I've been wanting one for quite a while.

And there's my dilemma. For the majority of game I hunt, a .357 is acceptable. But, like Jerry Clower said, "you done throw'd a cravin' on me" and this one is for a .45 (+) caliber single action.

My GP is already with my gunsmith.
Can't Wait!!!!

FrankenRuger?

Yes Sir!
I have never shot such an accurate revolver in my life that was so easy to shoot.
And, I have owned and used some nice revolvers.
