Sore trigger finger, yep, I have the same results shooting standard power ammo in my LCR too. I have even shortened the trigger somewhat to remove some of the "hook around" the bottom to the trigger to lessen the bruise. At the SHOT Show, numerous times, I have pointed this "short coming/flaw" out to the marketing and engineering people in the Ruger Booth. I get resistance and excuses from those people. I threated to heat the trigger up and unbend the curl but I was advised not to do that because the trigger is a MIM part and it will break. A "J" frame S&W trigger doesn't have this hook and appears to be rather straight tangent to the curve of the trigger face. Because of this short coming I don't recommend the LCR to my customers seeking a small frame revolver. Like Taurus products, I don't stock the LCR in my shop either. My LCR is the least used modern firearm I own, I haven't shot it in several years, it is just a "safe queen".
