I was shooting my '92 Rossi today, and while the barrel was cooling off I ran about 250 through my new 4" 19-3. 150 158 gr lswc over Universal, 5.0 and 4.4. Pretty light .357 loads. Then 100 125 gr lrnfp over 3.4 Bullseye .38 Special. I put the new full power Wolff mainspring and 15 lb rebound spring in. Nice. Dropping plates in D/A regularly. Not as good as with my 1911's, but coming along. The gun is a dream.

Also ran 50 or so through my new to me used 6" 19-3. Longer sight picture, heavier front end. Target Trigger and Hammer. Not as nice D/A pull, but it has the original mainspring. I'm not sure that I've taken the side plate off of it yet. Very accurate. I think I prefer the 4"

Ran the 620 with both the .357 and the .38s. Nice. Not as nostalgic.

Ran the 25-13 with some pretty good 250 gr loads.The plates really flopped. I put the Wolff mainspring and 14 lb rebound in it. It's a keeper. I think I'll get the Ahrends retro combat grips for the 25 Classic. I like the control.
