The higher weight rounds are difficult to maintain good accuracy beyond 15ft. but the gun is accurate at that range. I bought it for CC and really only expect to use it at close range if ever. I have other guns for target practice, the LCR wears me out after 25-30 rounds without some rest in between firings.
Yes, the LCR was the last gun I shot before going home. Thanks for telling me about the Hornady ammo; that will save me a lot of trial and error.
