Not a 4" and not a 2". I saw this thing setting on a bottom shelf at a little shop a few weeks ago. Tha adjustable sight was what caught my eye to begin with. After looking around and asking a few questions I had to have it. IMHO it needs some trigger work but being stainless I will run it for a while yet.
I do have to say it shot excellent right off the bat. Other than adjusting the sight. Keep six rounds on a 9" paper plate off hand at 50 yards. I had about 15 rounds left and thought I would take a crack at the 14" gong at 100 yards. Adjusted my windage a bit more and 6 out of 6 hits pretty well centered.
Had some old wad cutters to empty out so went to 25 yards double action. It stacked the first dozen in a nice hole about 3". The group did open up the more I shot. But, these bullets were a bit hard in my opinion any way. Had had leading issues with them in other guns.
I hate to say it but I think I am going to get out of the smith and wesson business. The last two GP's have out shot any of my smiths in the same caliber. And the smiths had a LOT more load work done to get them to shoot as well as the Rugers.
I honestly am going to give the 38 a go in next summers bullseye league.
