This New Model Blackhawk is chambered in .357 Magnum and also fires .38 Special. It is the Model 0306 configuration with a 4.62 inch barrel and a six-shot fluted cylinder, providing a well-balanced full-size layout. The case label shows SKU 00306, and the revolver was made in the United States in 2024.
Construction is all alloy steel with a durable blued finish across the frame, cylinder, and receiver. The cold hammer-forged barrel and 1:16 RH twist support consistent accuracy and longevity while maintaining the line’s proven durability.
Operation is single-action only with an exposed hammer and serrated spur. Ruger’s transfer bar and loading gate interlock provide robust safety features without changing the familiar handling characteristics of the Blackhawk.
Sight regulation is straightforward thanks to the fully adjustable rear sight paired with a ramped, serrated front blade. The revolver arrives wearing Ruger hardwood grip panels with medallions, and the original black checkered factory grips are included for an alternative factory-correct option.
