Five different commercial jacketed .357 Mag loads, new 66 snub and minty old 66 snub.
25 yards off a rest.
New outshot old.
Some spitting from both.
Old got my left cheek, new got my right cheek.
The CorBon 140 did something weird I've never encountered before, and I've shot my share of .357s.
In the old 66, it shaved the jacket & deposited CorBon copper jacket material in large enough chunks wedged between the forcing cone & topstrap to bind the cylinder. I had to chisel it out with a small screwdriver & hammer.
Happened once.
In the new 66, same thing, happened with four different CorBon rounds.
