[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3812037, member: 15054"] I have purchased revolvers that the chambers were all different sizes and different brands brass shot different because the cases were all different lengths and thicknesses. Then there is the constriction where the barrel is threaded into the frame. Thank you Ruger and S&W. I do agree 90% of the time it is the shooter. I was at Lexington WMA range and I get to visiting with people there and let them shoot my stuff and I shoot their stuff. 2 guys there shooting semi auto pistols they just purchased. Shooting clay targets they had set up all over. One guy could not hit anything. He had just shot my 308 and asked if I wanted to shoot his 9 pistol. I shot it and the bullet went 2" above the clay. Shot again and busted the clay. then hit another and there was a third clay about 25 yards out and his buddy was plinking away at it and I held on it and busted it. The guy said You shoot my gun better than I do. It was just us there and range went cold and we set up some clays. I handed the guy his gun back and "I put 1 bullet into it" and told him you have 1 shot make it count. He held very still and aimed like his life counted on it and pulled the trigger and jerked/pushed the front of the pistol down about 4". CLICK is all you heard. Yea I did not really put a bullet into it I just pretended. I told him that 9 MM will not hurt you so no need to flinch. He had no idea he was flinching. After knowing he hit a clay almost every time and thanked me for "tricking him". [/QUOTE]
