Depends on the gun. A *lot*.
OK. Take the Colt Python. Great gun, finiky hand-tuned action. When it's right, it daintily holds the bolt up until it's JUST RIGHT and then drops it in the cylinder notch right as it spins into position, or a fraction before. In proper tune, won't produce a turn line. And with that reduction in drag, trigger feel is greatly improved.
Now take a Ruger GP100. Similar size gun, same caliber, even looks a bit similar (esp. with a full lug barrel). But it's designed to drag the bolt.
Downside: trigger feel. Although with some wear (about 2,000 dry-fires does nicely) it ain't half bad. The upside to this rude, crude, stone-axe-engineering approach is that the bolt WILL drop into the cylinder notch every freakin' time. Can't hardly help it. Reliability goes up as it can't possibly turn past the right point to go boom.
For a woods gun or other tough-conditions, gotta-work situation, I'll take a GP along before a Python even if I'm made o' money and can afford either.
Anyways. Know the gun you're dealing with. Turn rings mean different things on different guns.
