The only minimum revolver pull weights I've ever seen in the rule books (been a few years) were for single action. Which is why most PPC revolvers are/were DA only, there was no way they could meet the SA requirement.
Agreed. I've run mine low 4's but what it did mostly was screw up my timing. It would definitely take some relearning which is pointless since my 617 won't go near that light and I shoot both.

My revolvers still have the SA sears (the 617 has a spur too) but I hadn't paid attention to the SA pull weights, they get shot DA.
617-1 is 7 1/2 lb DA (set up to fire cheapo bulk ammo) and 1 3/4 lb SA.
627-5 is 6 lb DA, 2 1/2 lb SA.
Checked with a Lyman electronic gauge. The 627 won't quite lift the NRA 2 1/2 lb test weight.
