Smith and wesson .38 or rossi 357?

Good luck. My 462 is nearly new - 50 rounds through it so far. I'm not too sure about it right now. In that short time I had the cylinder lock up once and needed extreme force to eject spent brass a couple of times. If the weather holds I'll be on the range tomorrow with a different brand to see what happens.

Dr. Tad, your new sig line is still crackin' me up. ROFL!

The ONE Taurus (model 66) I bought went through almost 100 and broke. The timing was off and one of the rnds slammed into the forcing cone seizing up the gun. I took it back and exchanged it for the Ruger.

I've got two 66s that have digested multiple thousands of rounds. Never had a problem with Taurus, had a firing pin issue with a Interarms Rossi 971. I do still have two Rossis and 3 Tauri (two 66s and an 85UL).

Also had a cracked forcing cone on a M10 Smith and Wesson, so ya know, like they say, stuff happens.

I wouldn't mind having another Taurus, but they are priced the same as Ruger, Rossi's (however) are not so high in the price. So I either buy the Ruger or the Rossi...
