686+. 7 is more than 6 if my math is correct....

I did end up getting that SSR. Love it!

I bought the 686 plus. But I love that grip. Damn it's nice. I had my trigger done over and it's honey now. I bought the R8 too. Lotta nice revolvers out there.

Outstanding. I didn't like the grips and switched them out for Pachmayr Compacts. The SSR is an excellent revolver. You'll enjoy yours.

Unless you just love the aesthetics of the SSR, go with the standard 686 and save your money. Both are going to need action work out of the box.

LoL

Thanks for that timely response.


Anyway I got the SSR because I love the look (flat slab barrel, bead blasted and that amazing wood grip) and the interchangeable front sight.

To me if you aren't going to a seven shot on an L frame with moonclips it's really just pointless and probably should just stick with a K frame 19 or 66 running 158 grainers, no 110's or 125's without risk to the forcing cone. I owned two 586 L Comp Pre-locks and at least four of the pre-lock 686+ models, all set up for moonclips and they reload fast as hell.
