    Dot Torture “Lite” (Snubby Version)

    Dot# – Shots:
    1 – 5 shots, slow fire

    reload

    2 – draw, one shot
    3, 4 – draw, 1 on 3, 1 on 4 (2x)

    reload

    5 – draw, one shot strong hand
    6 – draw, 1 on 6, 1 on 7 (2x)

    reload

    8 – ready, one shot weak hand
    9,10 – draw, 1 on 9, 1 on 10 (2x)
    I like it but would add the reload component to 9,10. I think it may help me transition from magazines to cylinder reloads and working through the left rotation on my LCR (loading the right chamber, or as jetfire suggested, a full speed loader).

    9&10 - I think, even though it is fiddly to practice reloading with a j, I should practice reloading it if I’m going to keep carrying it, so I have done the reload step between 9&10 when using DT. Probably will continue, even when using the “5 shot lite” DT.

    It had not occurred to me to do just.one.shot when doing the draw to shots on 2&5, or ready on 8. That makes a ton of sense.

    I might also dry fire the whole thing before live firing it.
    I like this thought process as well.

    I'll put this in the other thread as well, but here is an attempt at a DT Lite (Snubby) incorporating the above. I went back and forth on the 9/10 reload and finally just added a remark in the box as an option for the user to shoot it how they like.

    Ended up being 20 rounds, as planned. Hopefully I'll be at the range Monday and will shoot it then.

    Still learning this LCR trigger, pulled a few low.
    In an ammo constrained environment, I like this little iteration and will repeat it often. Thanks @RJ.
