Is end shake detected by side to side play or fore and aft play???? About time I got this straight.
End shake is fore and aft. Depending on the source, the side to side wobble, or rotational play, is referred to as "lock up" or "end play" (and there may be other terms in use as well).
It's been my experience that hot loads that exceed the design specifications of the revolver will induce end shake more rapidly. For instance, Skeeter Skelton loads in a 686.
