Recently bought one 5.5" barrel. Only shot about 800 of 38spl and 200 of 357mag. Initially the trigger was stiff to stout.
After polishing, shims, more polishing, wolff 14#, 13# and finally 12#...

On the home range, set up 3 targets 10, 17, 25 yds. I fold under pressure...so added no shoots...
The "huge" advantage is there. But, it takes an iron grip to keep the gun aimed level and no blink reflex. The lesser report and softer recoil helps the shooter do that. The softer recoil reduces...
I agree completely on hating watching video and seeing "that guy" stumble and bumble along aimlessly when I distinctly remember flying through the course of fire! (yes, delusions of adequacy. Lol)
Actually, looks pretty good!
I'm no expert, but did manage to increase draw speed a lot. even though I'm an old geezer. it was simple, but not easy. Daily dry fire with the par timer. Really...
Nice looking draws, guys!
Last wheel gun I bought was off Armslist. Went like this;
Hi, hi, see the gun? Ok, here's cash. Shakes hands leaves w 454 wheelie. 2 minutes.
Face to face, private sales are still legal in...
We're still waiting to see yours..... ;)
Luke, nice draw. I'm jealous of your reloads. Those are a glaring weakness of mine.
Thanks. I skimmed the link. It deserves more study, will have to spend some quality time reading.
Right now, the "amount I need to see" is somewhat randomized by an inconsistent weak hand grip....
It's only 1/2 a draw. This is "speed mode" training day and my goal is to see how fast the physical motions can be accomplished.
I'm simulating 10yds with a 1/3 scale metric at 10 ft. the grip was...

This was done "cold". Had the timer set immediate from the other day, then set to random. (hey, I'm a goof ball, what can I say?)
Par time 0.6. almost...
Yup. I'm figuring out my grip isn't hard enough, which impacts trigger.
You funny guy...

On that reload I pinched my palm. for the 2nd time that day...

I don't... don't even know how!
It should just take you to photobucket.

I did ...ok on that one, except for moving at glacial speed. . Oh, and...
At least for me, it's hard to maintain accuracy at even match speed. Especially with my "style" of shooting which was discribed as being "like a rabid squirrel on crack".
Actually, my biggest...
I agree. Pure aggressive speed mode, throwing caution to the wind teaches the body to move fast. But, precise accurate but still quick also needs to be done.
In January, 2016 I started real DF...
First post!
As a recovering newbie, one thing learned from a class was the dry fire time should be the same as live fire. I "fail" because I don't hold sight picture long enough. (Fail =miss)...
