    22 LR getting stuck

    I have the same problem with Winchester's in my 18-3, I can't seat them in the cylinder and have to pound them out. But, they fit fine in my pre-17. Go figure.

    I like 5.4 grains of W231 with a 200 grain LRNFP. It is like a big .38 round.

    Had mine done at age 61, two months recovery from surgery sounds good, but it took at least a year before almost full range of motion was achieved.

    Cataract Surgery - Follow-up

    You done well. After surgery, I have 20/30 vision with astigmatism so I still have glasses (albiet weak ones). Before cataract surgery my vision was 20/900 and 20/750 so I am tickled pink with these new glasses. The new glasses are the first ones I have had that are not glass.

    Heavy

    I recently had an opportunity to handle a 4" Ruger GP100 in .327 Federal and I found it to be an extremely nose-heavy and heavy revolver. I don't have any full lugged J, K or N frames so maybe I am spoiled. Does anyone else think the GP100 is heavy?

    A question to those of you that have had shoulder surgery.

    I had a bone spur removed and a rotator cuff tear repaired in June of 2012. I had physical therapy for 6 months. I don't have a problem shooting my 1903 Springfield, 1917 Winchester or my M1 rifle using my reloads (46 grains H4895 and 150 grain FMJBT projectile).

    Spending a week in a gun-free zone

    To carry in Illinois, you need to pass their concealed carry course. They are just now starting to teach the teachers how to teach concealed carry. I understand out-of-staters have to pay twice as much to get the license as in-state people.
