[QUOTE="Hicks, post: 1063158, member: 9129"] Hi all, A couple of weeks ago I was swapping a scope off my Ruger and I noticed that the front site is cocked to the right as you look down it. My load for that pistol is Elmer Keith's load: 240Gr cast Keith Type with 22Gr of 2400. The scope has been on it for about 18 years and I've not noticed any decrease in accuracy; it is actually quite accurate and I have shot prairie dogs with it out to 150 yards. But now I'm more interested in carrying it without a scope and I need to get the barrel twisted back the right way. Question: Is it possible that shooting hot loads has twisted the barrel off that much? Any input welcome! Hicks [/QUOTE]
