[QUOTE="boomermet, post: 856612, member: 8470"] Went down to H&H to blow off some steam and blast something...Had a box of .357 to shoot...Loaded up and pulled the trigger and bam, then click, click, click, click and click..5 misfires...checked the ammo and all had the small dent in the primer...putem back in and no go..got a box of 38 spec and shot them all but one...When I checked out I ask the guy there about it and showed him the 14 rounds that had not fired...He took a rental gun, a S&W 686 .357 and went in the range and all fired...I have a S&W 686 SSR pro series and the trigger was worked on in this model so he said the hammer strikes lighter on this one, has a really smooth action, so I should use a different brand of ammo..I was using this stuff I got at the grand opening of Heartland Outdoors, PMC eRange. Made in Korea..He said I should use only Federal stuff, like blazer, american eagle etc...Anyone have a similar experience? Kinda ticked off about this because if I had to use it in self defense and all I got was clicks, might have been tense from then on... [/QUOTE]
