Default S&W 617 22lr

Thank you for sharing your Range Report.

Your Report basically mirrors mine.

My 6"bbl has remained stock and the trigger
has smoothed out over the 1000's of 22lr's
I've shot.

My 4"bbl is very unforgiving though. It is very
hard to get an accurate target. One has to
concentrate on front sight and trigger control
and steadiness.

After shooting the 4"bbl and picking up he 6"bbl
accuracy comes very easy.

My cylinder charge holes also become sticky after
so many rounds shot. At the Range I use a Q-tip
to clean the residue out and at Home I have a wore
out 223 brass bore brush, that I push though and
pull out over the garage can, while holding he barrel
and stabilizing the cylinder with thumb and finger.

Thank you so much for sharing pictures of the
Range test, also.
