That's pretty impressive!  I'll bet those are real tackdrivers.  My collection runs a little more traditional.  Just 'easy carring' guns.  Keep shooting.  44 Man

I am continuing to expand my collection of .22 handguns. When I pick up my new MK III, it will be 10.

Question: How do you like the holosight on the MK III Hunter? I am thinking of something like that for my MK II 678 GC.

I did not know Ruger makes a MKIII with a 10" barrel

The sight is nice, it does take some getting used to.. I don't if all versions are the same or not?? Once you learn a consistent grip/sight picture it works good. I did brave the snow this weekend to do some shooting. These were shot at 25yds in cold/windy/snowy weather..

44Man:

May I ask where you got those ivory grips for your Bearcat?

I have an older model of that gun and those grips are very nice. I checked the Ruger website and they do offer ivory grips but they do not appear to be available for the Bearcat.

Thank you.

Those grips are a pair the Lloyd Smale sent to me.  They look like they were molded from a pair of Ruger wood grips.  They have the medallion molded in and also you can feel the wood grain slightly.  Send me a PM and I'll send them along to you if you like.  I just sold that Bearcat.  44 Man

Good shooting. I would be proud of groups like that.
