Start buying ammo, tons of it. Nice gun. Look for bulk ammo sales online. You don't need fancy $20 a box stuff for varmints. I use whatever is the cheapest and it does kill 'em.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

"Right now, I am thinking that If my grandmother was here, she would be lecturing me about how there are poor people in Africa, that would just love to have a Ruger, I would just say "Great, granny, lets just ship all the Rugers to Africa!"

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.
