Too many years ago, I bought a new S&W Model 66 with a 6-inch barrel. I did shoot a 50-round box of Remington mid-range 125 grain JSP .357 Magnum loads, but ever since I've fired only standard pressure .38 Specials, whether they be my own reloads or factory rounds. In other words, I treat that M-66 as a stainless steel K-38. Thus used, I'm confident that it will last far longer than I will!
