I currently shoot a 4 inch 610 that has been carmonized back when he hated hammer spurs and had time to whack them off. After spending the day with Hopalong I have a question that I'd like your input on.
How much faster can you reload a 625 than a 610. I actually held a 625 today and stared into the huge holes in the cylinder. It does, in theory, seem that the 625 would load faster because there is less for the rounds to catch on. I use 200 gr RN 40 bullets which help tremendously with the 610 but there is still all that extra meat between the holes. I have never felt that I am slow on my reloads, especially when I take the time to practice them but have had the moon stand on the cylinder while reloading.
I am in the constant pursuit of elevating my game. Would it be worth exploring the idea of dropping the 610 platform and switching to the 625? how much would I expect to gain?
