[QUOTE="jdagreek, post: 1777939, member: 14916"] I have a S&W 10 shot revolver ... a model 617. I love shooting it. All I use it for is target practice. It is pretty accurate. Last time I had it at the range, I went through close to 500 rounds in a very short time. I like to load it, aim it and pull, pull, pull as rapidly as possible ... to see how close a grouping of 10 I can get at 25 - 30 yards. Yes, likely sounds dumb, but it is fun to me. Funny story with this 22. I was at H&H last winter and had finished shooting a couple hundred rounds with this 22LR. I was getting ready to leave and realized I had my brought my S&W 460 with me to shoot a few rounds of my latest Buffalo Bore 380 grain hard cast, flat nose ammo. So, I pulled it out, loaded it and when the 1st round went off there was this blood curdling scream from the guy in the next booth to my right. That thing sounded like a fricking canon and the guy thought my 22lr had exploded. The guys in the same range with us laughed their asses off. Taught me a lesson that when I change from a 22lr to the 460 I need to warn my neighbors :). [/QUOTE]
