shot rounds

[meanoldman]

My wife shot 6 rounds of shot rounds through my model 17. Do these hurt the barrel? I had to tap out the spent rounds as they locked up the cylinder.

Thanks,
David

The shot wont hurt the gun. A lot of .22s have a hard time extracting.

No harm to the revolver, but I would carefully clean it to make sure all plastic/lead/powder fouling is removed.

I shoot them all the time in my model #18-2. after shooting 25 or more round's I have extraction problem's. cleaning with a brush takes care of it.
