You can fire .22 shorts from a .22LR, what point are you trying to make?

I had a Russia back in early 70s. I fooled with it awhile and traded it for a 92 Win. It was no a Target model and was plain blue with black rubber grips. It was in nice mechanical condition and nice bore. No signs of pitting. I got some new Russian cases back then, in fact still have them. I also cut old 44sp and 44 mag for Russian cases. I loaded with cast 200gr and Unique, low end out of old Lyman manual. That was a smooth old gun. I only had that one but many other early S&Ws. Like Winchesters if you have spent time with the originals, the replicas feel different. I’ve had a couple of the Schofield replicas and after shooting one, I don’t bother anymore. Have no interest in replicas, originals yes. I often regret offing that Russia. That ain’t the only dumb thing I ever did.
