David E posted an interesting thread regarding speed comparing SA vs DA revolvers. One thing I noticed is that the start was "gun at low ready, thumb on uncocked hammer."
I have practiced the SA draw so that my hammer is cocked by the time the gun reaches "low ready" position, that is, sometime just after clearing leather, and falls just as the gun comes level. So, in effect, when the gun comes level, I have only a short trigger pull of about two pounds, as opposed to a long ten to twelve pound DA trigger pull.
I lack the timer to fully time this, but works for me.
