Well Guy's,
I took her out to the range this morning and all I took with her was Remington Tunderbolts (yes I know, terrible). The revolver could have been a shotgun. No patterns what so ever. So I put it up went to town and bought some M22 Winchester. That was a lot better but still not much for grouping, even off a rest.
I did notice that I was getting shavings hitting my left shoulder and my left check. So I believe that I will contact S&W on Monday and see if they will fix it. My forcing cone looks terrible and you can see that it is caked with lead on the face of it and on the frame beside the forcing cone.
Kinda of disappointed, I bought a S&W 686 (ordered it and when it came in at the LGS) the barrel was clocked. Sent it back and bought a GP100 instead. Thought that I would give S&W another chance, I have always wanted a 617, so I jumped on this one. Love the pistol, so I believe that I will let S&W try and fix it. We will see what they say.
