Got them from Bob at 4WheelGuns.com They have a magnet in them and the speedloaders have a ferromagnetic screw in them that holds the loader in place in the holder. They're also handy for steel challenge shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerMcFadden Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I’ve never really considered the “hardness” of rimfire primers. Who is the “federal primer” of 22? How low can you get you trigger pull down to with a 22 Revo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How low can you get you trigger pull down to with a 22 Revo? I've had my best luck with Federal BYOB and Remington Bucket Of Bullets. They are both .38 grain HPs but in the revolver there is no feeding problem. The lowest I've gotten my trigger pull is 6.5 pounds. I keep it at a hair over 7 so that I get 100 % reliability.

JRB Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Good afternoon Guys. I hope you are all doing ok, in these very trying times. I a looking forward to trying my S/W 617 10 shot in ICORE, if this crap had not happened, I would have gotten the chance in May at the next match, but that's life. I had to add an C/L extended firing pin to my 617 to insure that the rounds always went off, I have about 4000 rounds through it on the longer pin, not one failure. I use Agula .22 as it was the most consistent in power factor, I needed this for the mover in AP, the round is going 1050 no less and up to 1060 max, OMG what great ammo. Fifty yards on the practical all x's sort of, its me not the ammo. The one thing that's for sure, I can not get the trigger lighter than 8.5lbs, I can live with that. Be safe out there, this will end. Russell Canadian AP / IPSC / USPSA / ICORE / PPC / Rim fire Challenge sort of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy says it will give you a 6.5 pound trigger without modifications to your firearm. I did change my rebound spring to an 11 pounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demus319 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I ask about shooting my 617 at our ICORE match but they did not like the idea because of the falling plates. They did not want to paint after each Rimfire shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAB Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) I'd like to but here in Canada it's hard enough to just fined an icore match Edited April 5, 2020 by JAB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyScuba Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 You should come down with us to a Rochester match, when everything gets back to normal that is. Good bunch of guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mover480 Posted December 10, 2023 Author Share Posted December 10, 2023 Unfortunately, 4wheelguns.com no longer is in business. The loading block and case can be obtained directly from Dave Skrzela (DS-10-SPEED). Just send him a PM on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AzShooter Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 I shot one ICORE match with my 617 and it was great. The steel was set light because of the light .38 loads guys now shoot and my .22 was able to nock down everything except one falling plate. Next time I'll bring some HV .22s with me so that everything falls down. They really didn't know how to react when I showed up. Most of the shooters gave me the look that I shouldn't be there but I was invited by the match director. He didn't know how to score me but that didn't matter. I told him that it was just for fun. Get out with those 617s and have fun. Most stages now have a more than 8 shots, probably 9 which forces a reload on every gun there except the 617s. I made up a lot of time not having to reload. Bring lots of DS-10 speed loaders with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
