I sent the 686 6" to the shop to have the cylinder checked out.
I was getting jacket splinter "Fly back" that would hit me in the cheek
under my safety glasses and draw blood.
A new cylinder was installed and the barrel forcing cone was reamed
according to the packing slip.
For the last two years I have been heavy in doing loads for 9mm
and it has been a while since I lit off some full power loads.
Not to say the 9mm is wimpy but a full head of steam on a 158gr
bullet will also get your attention.
Tested out some top loads to see if they printed as well as when tested.
Looks like the old revolver is back and doing well for my old eyes.
I have a picture to post and surprise, I even left all the powder data on it
which I do not normally do.
For those that want the distance;
it was 15 yards with a wood block/foam top rest.
