Hey all. Had a great day at the range yesterday at Gilbert Small Arms Range in Lorton, VA until I came home to clean my guns.
I put 18 rounds through my Ruger SP101 .327 Federal Magnum and after that my buddy fired off about 24 or so. He put the gun back in my case and after firing the rest of the guns we brought we went home. While cleaning it today i noticed the barrel turned about 1/16 of an inch counter clockwise. Has anyone seen this? It was suggested to me by a relative the barrel got hot and the bullets going through turned it. Looking for some advice, whether or not it needs to go to Ruger or is it a simple fix? Thanks guys.
Oh yeah it's only 2 months old it has only had about 150 of the Federal .327 Federal Magnum Factory rounds through it and about 50 of .32 S&W long.
