AMMO Shortage

But that is the beauty of hand loading. For heavy range use the milder reloads extends revolver life. I started reloading too late & my revolver needs 'tuning' after each session these days. I just need to bite the bullet and send the piece in for a nice refurbishment, or just upgrade to a nice .44 Magnum piece. Because I feel like a punk. Lucky?

I am not an accurate gauge of recoil. To me, the recoil was nothing to write home about. I might change my mind in the years to come.

If you can find anyone who'll do a good job on a rollie. Some gunsmithing jobs can be done by anyone with good handyman skills and a bit of nous. Jerry Kuhnhausen's S&W and Colt shop manuals are the last word.

Yeah, funny you should mention that. I didn't think anyone bought factory ammo, I though we all loaded our own. For me shortage of components is much more important than shortage of factory ammo.

Thank you for the info. I don’t know how I missed this reply. I’ll give Jerry’s shop manual a go

I recently struggled to get hold of range bullets then I found a boat load of .38/.357 bullets at Shooting Stuff in Hennopspark, Centurion. Prices are decent as well. They deliver door-to-door nationwide as well
