Hello folks,
I've been lurking on this forum for a while. I decided to see if one of you folks more knowledgable than I might be able to answer a question for me.
I have a Hi-Standard Sentinel R-101 that was handed down to me by my father. The revolver performs flawlessly. I was noticing tonight as I cleaned it, that the cylinder is long enough to accept .22 Magnum rounds. All I have ever shot in it was .22 Long Rifle.
Are these revolvers safe for .22 Magnum? Is this the original chambering? The barrel is marked ".22 CAL" but makes no reference to short, long, long rifle, or magnum.
Thanks,
M.
