Nice catch azdover the revolver in my preferred caliber and the fix. It can be aggravating when they need tweaking, repair right away but you handled it well. As my old gunsmith friend was fond of saying, none of them are ready to go right out of the box. They all benefit from a little tweaking. Well Done!

They haven't appeared here in Ky yet. They don't have to as I hear them and crickets and peepers 24-7in my ears. Its especially loud late at night or early in the morning when everything is quiet in the house.

Trey You may find some benefit from blank wall or blank paper dry firing . No target at all just grooving your grip and trigger control. Try 10 or 20 dry fires with your eyes closed , no stimuli to distract you just feeling the trigger and its release. Its like blank bale shooting with a bow with your eyes closed, just feeling the trigger and its release. After a time add a single vertical line to the target. With the gun in the low ready square up to the target close your eyes and raise the gun. If you are off the line move your feet not the gun and repeat till you can square up to the target and be on the line when you raise the gun. It helps me to go over these basics from time to time. May help you.

Loaded some 357 158 gr cast swc with Unique. I could not throw a consistent charge last night, Lyman Ideal or RCBS measure didn't matter, tried both. The charges would be a tenth high, low, or dead on. Is it enough to matter, probably not but it bugged the hell out of me as these measures usually throw better than that. So wound up weighing every charge, guess my ocd was working overtime last night.

Mine came with the smaller XR3 grip frame. Smaller frame and different grip screw placement.

Tools of the trade, SUPER NICE!!! Even with rubber grips that 41 can't be fun to shoot, but when REALLY needed recoil is the last thing on your mind. Ounces equal pounds at the end of day in the mountains and thick bush. Ounces equal pounds at the end of day as we get older too. Nice choice James!
