I have a S&W 629 Classic w/ a 7.5" barrel. I bought it slightly used in 1999. I've been happy with it, but recently I began trying to work up some good 240gr handloads in hopes of hunting deer this year with it. The loads my buddy and I did about 2 years ago with 240gr LSWC and my new loads with 240gr SJHP w/ H110 both shot about the same. I wasn't impressed shooting all over 12" at 50 yards off a bench rest
. Is that kind of accuracy normal for that gun at that distance? 12" with most within 8" would be adequate for deer, but with that long of a barrel, I was hoping for better accuracy. Any opinions / suggestions are appreaciated. Dave
