Anyone have or had long barreled Ruger Single Six- Opinion ?

[JRR]

I'm looking at several 9.5" barreled Rugers online and wondering if you liked it, hated it or thought it didn't make any difference in accuracy. I have several Sixes and think the longer barrel would improve my point and shoot accuracy.

Good for target only on range, imho. Now, if you can add a removable rifle stockto the butt of the pistol now you have an interesting, again imho, calvary piece. Ihad a friend who loved his, I was not a big fan.

Had one, wasn't a big fan. Didn't balance well, was awkward in the woods. The only time I thought it was worth it was when I had the magnum cylinder in it.

Mine are 5 1/2" & 6 1/2", buddy has the 9 1/2". I don't care for the longer barrel.

Most of the time, I shoot the 5 1/2" and he shoots my 6 1/2", but he will not sell the 9 1/2", because it is "rare"

I never could hit very well with the single six. Idk just me

love mine have 22lr & 22 mag cylinders. Very accurate.

I had one years ago.
Put a 22 mag in a groundhog's ear at 25 yards.
My girlfriend said it looked professional.

Had a couple, they were too long for the grandkids.

...Didn't balance well, was awkward in the woods....

This is my 2 cents on all really long barreled handguns like that.

Long barrels are awesome!
