Hey all,
I have recently recieved an old (at least the late 60's) Ruger .357 Blackhawk (three screw no safety mod sweet trigger). I have what I am sure is a very basic question. The pistol is marked simply as a .357. When I look at the new Rugers they are all marked .357 Mag. Further, none of the ammo makers seem to list the .357, they all list .357 Mag. What's the deal? Can I shoot .357 Mag. ammo (in addition to 38 Special)?
