Try some 148-gr wadcutters. Very pleasant to shoot and they're supposed to be pretty effective for defensive use.

Float charger works great, no drama

$750 was a very fair price for that blaster, congrats :)

I've got one of those and they're awesome. Hang on tight if you're shooting full-power loads lol

Might try lead-away cloth, it works well in cleaning stainless steel revolvers.

Has anyone actually slugged a bore of a 29-2 for measurement purposes? I have a couple of 29-2s that I believe were manufactured approx 1977 or perhaps 1978. Both have S/Ns starting with N397XXX. I have shot Oregon Trail lead SWC bullets measuring .431 with good results, but am wondering what...

If that's just lead and powder residue, a cleaning solvent like Hoppes #9 should remove it.

That's not a 5" barrel. Measure from the front of the cylinder.

Good choice! The 2.7 is bullet proof, and this is the last chance to buy a Toyota truck with that engine.

31-gr of IMR 4198 with a 405-gr cast bullet gives me good accuracy out of my Ruger #1. It's at the bottom of the chart in the Lyman's reloading manual for trapdoor loads, but it still packs a good punch.

I sent my 686 no-dash in many years ago and never gave it a second thought. Glad I did, in fact, and wonder why you have second thoughts about sending yours in? To repair a known defect that might affect the reliability of the revolver seems like an easy decision.

Stop right there. Nothing else on the current market in the U.S. comes close. Mid-size body-on-frame SUV, still made in Japan in one of their best factories. Check the resell value on these and you'll be shocked. Just about the best resell value of any vehicle...

Good find, Dana! Congrats
