Default Interesting factory issue **Update-Great resolution**

**Winchester has issued me a refund in the amount of $44 for this box of ammunition! I'm very happy with how I've been treated. I will continue to use the Service Grade .45acp ammo Winchester offers for range/training use as it's been of excellent quality. Well done Winchester and service rep Jeannie.**


I went to the range this morning to shoot my converted 28-2 (it's in the '61-'80 section). After shooting some Speer Gold Dots I opened a new box of Winchester .44spl cowboy loads. 6 rounds, everything good. Second six-I fired 3 when it bound up. Opened the cylinder and a bullet dropped free!! Looked at the case and it didn't appear there was any powder in it.

**Correction-the round in question never rotated into position under the firing pin. I'm guessing recoil caused the bullet to come loose, the primer wasn't struck and is intact.**
