I picked up my new 642 last week and put a bunch of handloads through it both last week and this weekend. I didn't notice the "long" trigger pull everyone was "complaining" about. This weekend I also picked up a box of Speer 158g +P's and put them through it also. Recoil was nothing like some would have me to believe. It was a pleasure to shoot and I could have shot +P's all day long. It was enjoyable.
I get tired of reading posts from people who have an opinion on just about everything, but have tried nothing. Unless they try it - they have no right to comment. Unfortunately it isn't going to stop anyone.
The 642 was great to shoot. It shot where I pointed it. Some of the groups, albiet slow fire, have two or three touching with one or two slightly off to the side. That was me. Every shot, at 9 yards, was minute of bad guy.
Just wanted to post this in case there was anyone else out there like me, on the fence about getting one, because they didn't know how they would react to the recoil. What recoil?
It's with me 100% of the time now and I love it.
