I'm using the same HKS #10 as for my k frame and takes the same SL variant that I use for my Ruger Security six except that now that I have the Hogue rubber grips, the SL doesn't have enough clearance.
I don't know how they did it, but Kimber's k6 holds six round in almost the same size cylinder as a smith J frame or Ruger LCR.
I've never seen any reason to have a revolver with more than six rounds, and even then at the range, I only load five. A box of 50 cartridges, ten rows of five. Keeps things straight.
I know what you mean about that 8 shot Ruger. I wanted one in the worst way, until I saw the price and also the weight!! 45 ounces or so, and that is for the snubby version.I saw the 8-shot Ruger Redhawk in .357 and I wanted it!
I didn't want the $900 price tag.
As many have recommended, I did buy 3 Ruger Blackhawks, but they load a mite slow.
Aw come on, you know those ‘ six shooters ‘ in the movies never ran out of bullets.Yep, I'm a geezer, too. Hopalong Cassidy, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger...they were all my buddies when I was a kid, and they all shot 6 shot Peacemakers. That's how many chambers that revolvers had then, and I still think that that's what they should have now. I'll deviate for a 5 shot J frame snub, but that's about it.
When I think of a revolver with more than 6 shots, it's like throwing a wrench into the gears of the machine that runs the universe. There's a big jolt, and the time space continuum is distorted in a horrible way.
Besides, the cylinders of 7 and 8 shot revolvers just look funny.
