By the letter of USPSA rules, you can use a 7 or 8 shooter, you can even load it full, but you just can't SHOOT but six before reloading. Can you count to six and stop every time?

Seems to me you need to count to six even if your gun only holds 6 so you'll not waste time pulling the trigger on empty chambers.
I can see the point, no reason under current rules to have more than 6, but it also seems like only a minor issue to shoot the round with 7-8, stop firing after 6, dump empties, and reload all 7-8 rounds and count to 6 again. Even if you are dumping 1-2 loaded rounds at each reload.
I wouldn't buy a 7-8 shot revolver specifically for this, but if someone owned one and wanted o shoot, it doesn't seem that large of a handicap.
