Went out and shot the match at Hinton. Shot my Model 66 in SSR. What a hoot!
Had a major uh-oh when I pulled the trigger the first time and got nothing but a click, I pulled again and got nothing but click. So I swung out the cylinder to take a look and saw two primer dents. Hmmm.. Backed it up two holes, closed it, pulled trigger again and it goes bang, then click, click, bang bang. Then I knew I had loaded CCI primers. Ooops... :blink: Big no-no with a reduced power mainspring.
Big thanks to Mike Cox for "loaning" me ammo loaded with Federal primers so I could shoot the match!
It was a fun match. It's a whole different world from USPSA but the targets are close enough that you can still shoot fast. Even with a revo!
