Ruger MkII grips?

[pepperbelly]

 I am new here, but not to shooting or other boards- Hi!
 I have a stainless Mk II with a 5.5" bull barrel, a custom comp and am currently using a Leupold/Gilmore red dot scope.
 I shoot falling plate matches, and won the overall in the last match, as well as starting to shoot in bullseye. I am currently using the stock grips with a few pieces of grip tape in a couple of places. I am not happy with my grips, especially in bullseye. My score last week was 776, and should have been better.
 I have looked at a set of Volquartsen grips. They have a "medium" palm shelf and a thumb rest. I think they are hard rubber. I held a MkIII that had them installed and after a very brief time they seemed to feel good- I did not shoot it with them though.
 Since I will be using the pistol for both types of matches, which means both a single hand and double hand grip. I have medium-large hands and long fingers. The MkIII felt good, I think, because it filled my hand better. I have no idea what it will do to my trigger pull.
 Has anyone had any experience with this particular grip?
 Does anyone have any suggestions for another grip I might look at?

 I also shoot a SA .45acp with a similar set-up, that has Pachmeyer grips. Do Pachs work well in this situation?

 BTW, neither pistol is exactly stock, although I have kept the trigger pull a little on the heavy side. A lighter pull would help a lot in bullseye but I worry about it in fast action shooting.

 Thanks,
 Jim

I have the Volq. grips on my MK1 and MK2 target guns I like them fine. However you will have to install extended clip release, otherwise the clips are very difficult to get at.

I prefer checkered wood. I got fully checkered, slightly thicker wood MK II grips from Brownell's. I really like the feel, but that is a personal preference.

I use the Hogue wrap around grips on a Mk II 678 and love them along with a similar style Hogue grips on a pair of Springfield 45s.  The Mk II grip got a little work with a Dremel tool just for personal reasons.
