Awesome, thank you, Homerboy.

The 65 looks to be in good shape. I've heard about the ruggedness of the Sixes. I like to shoot magnums but it's cheaper with .38s. So if I'm shooting heavier grain .357s then it's not a problem? I'm surprised that it's the lower grain bullets that cause problems as opposed to the higher grain ones.
