Hello from Delaware
Hello to everyone. Just joined, I am from Delaware. Just purchased a Model 60 Pro Series, my first S&W. I've owned Colts, Rugers, CZ's and a Sig. Looking forward for some advice on types of ammo you guys would recommend, I think I am staying with 38 special +P for a while then try 357 ammo.

Howdy from florida! After you shoot some of your ammo choices try some 148 grain wadcutters either hollow base or double ended. They cut a perfect hole in hole in target and are fun to shoot. Enjoy

Welcome to the forum.
I stick with +P's in my Pro series Model 60-15. The .357's are no fun to shoot but I do run six a year thru the revolver.

Hi All.
Well, without even firing a shot out of the new Pro Series 60 Revolver, myself and the FFL dealer noticed the Cylinder Release seem to be binding, kind of like maybe there is a burr somewhere(which I find hard to believe) in the mechanism, Sometimes it would work, other times it took 2 or 3 attempts to open the cylinder.
So I called S&W, explained the problem and sent it back to the factory for repair. I hope this is not the beginning of issues, Wish me luck.
