I have a 10-6 with target grips. I use 158’s with 3.8 gr of BE. It shoots great and poi is poa at 25 yards.
"It's amazing the deals that pop up when I'm not looking." fatelk, this applies to me when I'm broke which happens all too often!
IT AINT what ya shoot--its how ya shoot it. NONE of us are as smart as ALL of us! The more I travel, the more I like right where I am.
Merry Christmas to all!
The holiday travels will bring me into 2 small gun shops that normally have a great selection.
I will keep you updated

I love my Smiths!
I had a Colt Trooper and sold it to get a S&W 686 and I didn’t regret it!

"Is there any truth to that?" YES
Smiths tend to lend themselves to remove/replacement parts - back ~100 yrs. Colts tend to be more 'hand-fitted' parts, that old. I will not hesitate to buy a 100 year old Smith that may need parts/OUT OF TIME/Lock Up, if price is right accordingly. While I will buy an old Colt that may need SIMPLE parts, I won't touch one that is anywhere near OUT OF TIME/Lock Up!
A Colt firing pin, etc, is no big deal. Other hand fitted parts that might be required to 'get it back in time' are a whole 'nother issue. A Smith, not so much/remove/replace.
