    38 only cylinders for .357 revolvers?

    I think if you were to put a 38spl only cylinder in a 357 frame it would drastically change the barrel to cylinder gap for the worse. A true 38 cylinder is shorter than a 357. Why don't you want to shoot heavy 38's from the 357 cylinder?

    I've always had good luck with Tucker.Rob is very easy to talk with and I have never had to wait longer than specified. I can't always order a Tucker because of budget issues but they are execellent holsters.

    Any truth to K-frames having best trigger?

    My 640-1 DA only has a much smoother trigger than my mdl 10-5.I'm not knocking the mdl 10,but I shoot the 640 better.

    Heavy 357 load

    Would the Winchester 145gr Silvertips be better than the Federal 158gr semi-jacketed HP's.I have a partial box of the Federal,don't shoot them that much as it's a real handfull from the 640-1.
