Buffalo Bore failure? Five shots = seven holes!!??

My question to you is where did you get that batch of BB ammo from? I have used lots of BB ammo and have a bunch more in stock and have NEVER seen primers like the ones on your photo's.

If you got them from someone I would be suspicious of re-loads" and if you got them from a reputable retailer I would DEFINITELY send them off to Tim Sundles who is the owner of BB ammo Corp. Something seems "funny" here!

I got them from Midsouth Shooters Supply: 38 Special +P 158 Grain Soft Case LSWCHP-GC | MidsouthShootersSupply.com

Wish I could provide an update but we got another blast of winter weather and I haven't had a chance to take the gun out again. It is Tim I have been dealing with and he's been extremely responsive and helpful, but I haven't sent him the picture because I don't really suspect "counterfeit" ammunition as problem here. But I will send him the pic now.

As an update to this issue, I have started a new thread in the revolvers forum called, http://smith-wessonforum.com/s-w-re...id-i-my-ammo-damage-my-model-60-made-way.html Now I notice that the left side of the frame by the barrel seems to have a odd little cut out of it, and I have no idea if this is something from the factory, or if one range session could have caused it. The other thread has more info and pictures.

Don't think the ammo had anything at all to do with your revolver - more like bad QC issue at the factory IMHO.
