Ignoring the obvious reason for using moonclips with a 45ACP revolver, allowing for easy ejection of spent casings, I wonder if shooting the gun without moonclips may introduce errors in accuracy and ignition?
I took some closeups of the open and closed cylinder both with and without a moonclip.
One thing obvious is the round goes further into the cylinder without the moonclip, can anyone speculate if that tiny difference could somehow affect accuracy?
The complement of that situation is, without a moonclip, the round is further from the firing pin with the cylinder closed, could that affect reliable ignition?
