I voted 90%, because I still sometimes (seldom) use the SA capability of my tradition DA revolvers. Also, while I still own a number of traditional DA revolvers (with SA capability), 5 of the J-frames I use for retirement CCW are DAO.
Just like in the days when I carried DA service revolvers, the significant majority of my shooting on the range (quals, training/practice drills and simple leisure shooting) is done using DA. Every once in a while I'd take one of my standard DA and DAO revolvers (including my SA capable snubs) and run some drills out at 30-50yds, but again, the bulk of the shooting is DA. Sure, now and again I'll thumb-cock one of the SA capable wheelguns into SA, and enjoy being able to take advantage of an approx 3-3.5lb trigger break to make longer distance 'precision' shots. Doesn't change that the bulk of the shooting is done for practice in DA/DAO, though. Old habits (and training).
Now, my SA revolvers? The name explains the way they're used.
