Today's news includes a report that while deaths from heart disease rose in 2020 (before the vaccines were available), it declined in 2021 (after the vaccines were given). Deaths from strokes rose in 2020 and in 2021 but much less in 2021 (after the vaccines). Odd that.

I don’t recall what the manual said regarding +P rounds. However, it’s made in Italy, and the CIP pressure rating for the 38 exceeds SAAMI’s +P value.
I’ve had to send a rifle to Ruger. It took two trips, but they got it right eventually. Soft steels and misaligned ejector rods are another issue.
