Guess I get to wait
Ruger is shut down for the holiday, so I have to wait until next week to see if the Redhawk goes back to the factory. Went ahead and dropped it off at the gun shop. Removes the temptation I have to "do something" about the problem based on gun forum fixes.

Hell yes, a Redhawk in 45LC and 45ACP! Boo light primer strikes
Just picked up a Ruger Redhawk in 45 ACP/45LC. I'd like to say it shot well, but 3 fail to fires out of 100 is terminal to that diagnosis. With factory defensive ammo, it was closer to 2/14 failure rate.
Guessing the Remington has softer primers. But it still had a fail to fire. Even the 45LC looks odd. Note: the 5 on the right and bottom one of the adjacent row were fired from a different gun.
