    The 777 crud ring in the revolver

    Do I expect the 777 crud ring to ruin the groups from a clean revolver within the 6 shots in the first cylinder full?

    I get better groups with Pyro, and I heard some people swab the crud ring out after each shot, so I wondered if the crud buildup is to blame. I don't think I went more than 6 without cleaning the bore.

    Easy enough to find out. Shoot 6 from a rest at a target. Clean cylinder and bore. Shoot 6 more from a rest at a target. Swab bore between shots. Compare targets.
    Trust but verify the honeyguide

    I've only had the revolver a short time and it's going to be a while before I can do the testing, so I thought I would draw on those with more experience.
