In the Revolver no less. I'm certain it will shoot, once. If it does work I have another use for the unique components. I had trouble even finding the moon clips for the RH. Goodness are they expensive! Some $10 EACH with shipping. I am ordering some from "Speed Beez" where I can get (10) for $34 delivered. The "TK" brand is probably the best but they are soooooo expensive for a little stamped piece of metal.

I will be looking into the old S&W moon clips to see if they can easily be modified to work in the Ruger. They will NOT work "as is". I think they may have a shot. The value might be worth it. It sure looks like .45 Win. Mag ammo will function in this particular platform. If the alloy cases work I know the brass will too.

Since Jim had a debacle cutting the aluminum cases down I have suspended any ideas I had there. Thanks Jim!
